Montana has 34 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, with a reported 0% share of the national weekly total. The JSON does not provide the national count, and the reported share does not indicate a meaningful concentration of activity. The registry lists 11 providers added this week and 15 this year; those records should not be read as confirmed hires or measures of service availability.
ABA Workforce Mix
The credential summary lists 3 BCBAs and 2 RBTs, with no dual BCBA-RBT credentials reported. The summary’s BCBA and RBT figures do not describe the full provider population: most listed credentials are in counseling and related fields, and taxonomy labels are not equivalent to credentials. Eight providers have multiple taxonomies, so categories can overlap and should not be treated as separate workforce shares. The small number of BCBA records relative to RBT records does not establish a statewide supervision ratio, but it highlights how limited the registry’s identifiable ABA workforce is. Because BCBAs supervise RBTs, sparse BCBA representation may constrain the ability to expand technician-delivered services.
Demographics and Organizations
The demographic breakdown covers 18 individuals: 13 women, or 72%, and 5 men, or 28%; no nonbinary providers are reported. The provider count also includes 16 organizations, so these gender figures describe individuals rather than the entire registry total. SARA BOILEN PSY D PLLC appears twice in the notable-organizations field. Billings, Missoula, Kalispell, Great Falls and Whitefish are among the listed cities, but the update does not show local staffing or appointment capacity.
Overall, Montana’s update shows limited identifiable ABA credentials, making BCBA recruitment and supervision capacity important considerations for expanding access.
