Jacksonville recorded 23 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, representing 0% of the national weekly total reported in the dataset. The registry added 8 new providers this week and lists 9 new providers this year. Records include 21 individuals and 2 organizations, indicating that the city’s activity is driven primarily by individual clinicians rather than organizational NPI registrations. The reported share signals limited concentration in Jacksonville relative to the national weekly update, although the NPI count does not measure active caseloads, staffed locations or appointment availability.
ABA Credential Mix
The update identifies 6 BCBA providers and 4 RBT providers, including 1 dual-credentialed provider listed with both BCBA and RBT credentials. These categories overlap and should not be treated as separate, mutually exclusive groups. The provider with an “MA, BCBA” credential is also reflected in the BCBA count. Jacksonville therefore has a smaller identified BCBA pool than RBT pool, a pattern that can support direct-care delivery but may constrain supervision capacity as RBT staffing expands. The registry reports 3 providers with multiple taxonomies, further showing why credential and taxonomy totals should not be added together as a total workforce.
Workforce Demographics
Women account for 21 providers, or 100% of the reported workforce. No male or nonbinary providers were reported. The broader registry includes mental health counselors, speech-language pathologists, clinical social workers, a psychologist and a case manager alongside ABA professionals, suggesting Jacksonville’s behavioral health activity spans several disciplines. No notable organization appears multiple times in the update, and all 23 providers are registered in Jacksonville. Overall, the data points to a newly active but small, female-dominated local workforce in which ABA access will depend on adding both direct-care staff and BCBA supervision capacity.
