Nebraska had 73 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, representing 1% of the national weekly total. The file lists 36 providers added this week and 47 added this year, including 66 individuals and seven organizations. That modest share signals a small slice of national registry activity, not a complete measure of Nebraska’s behavioral health workforce or service capacity.
ABA Workforce Mix
The credential summary reports 2 BCBAs and 20 RBTs, with no dual BCBA-RBT credentials reported. These categories can overlap with other credential or taxonomy fields: one listed provider holds LIMHP, LBA and BCBA credentials, while Vibrant ABA NE LLC has a BCBA taxonomy. The summary’s credential counts should therefore not be treated as a mutually exclusive census of ABA roles. The reported RBT-to-BCBA ratio points to a much larger technician pool than supervisory pool. Because BCBAs supervise RBTs, that imbalance may constrain how quickly providers can expand direct services while maintaining clinical oversight. The data also lists 15 providers with multiple taxonomies, reinforcing that registry classifications can overlap.
Demographics and Organizations
Women account for 44 providers (67%), men for 15 (23%), and nonbinary providers for seven (11%); the percentages sum to more than 100% because of rounding. The update does not identify notable organizations appearing multiple times. Omaha and Lincoln lead the listed cities, alongside Grand Island, Scottsbluff and La Vista. The organization records include Vibrant ABA NE LLC in Lincoln and Arise Developmental Services LLC in Omaha, but the supplied data does not show repeated appearances for either.
Nebraska’s registry activity shows RBT presence outpacing BCBA capacity, making recruitment and retention of supervisors important to sustaining ABA access as the state’s provider base grows.
