Maryland had 263 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, accounting for 3% of the national weekly total. That share places the state among a notable portion of reported weekly provider activity, though registry records do not confirm hiring, staffing levels or appointment availability. The update lists 122 providers new this week and 139 new this year, with 187 individuals and 76 organizations.

ABA workforce mix

The credential summary lists 9 BCBAs and 79 RBTs, with no dual BCBA-RBT credentials reported. RBT records substantially outnumber BCBA records, pointing to a workforce mix weighted toward direct-service technicians rather than potential supervisors. Because BCBAs supervise RBTs, that gap makes supervisory capacity an important consideration for ABA providers. These credential categories may overlap with taxonomy classifications; they should not be read as mutually exclusive groups. The file also reports 36 providers with multiple taxonomies, reinforcing that classifications can overlap.

Demographics and organizations

Women make up 147 providers (79%), men 27 (14%) and nonbinary providers 13 (7%). These figures describe the listed population, not ABA workers alone. Community Behavioral Health appears under several name variants in the notable-organizations data: “COMMUNITY BEHAVIORAL HEALTH, LLC” has 38 records, “COMMUNITY BEHAVIORAL HEALTH LLC” has 7 and “COMMUNITY BEHAVIORAL HEALTH” has 4. The variants suggest repeated records associated with a recurring organization name, but the registry summary does not establish whether they represent distinct sites or entities.

Maryland’s registry mix suggests a substantial RBT presence, but expanding ABA access will also depend on maintaining enough BCBA supervision capacity to support technicians.
