Oregon recorded 163 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, representing 2% of the national weekly total. The registry added 73 new providers this week, while listing 80 added this year. Individuals account for 145 entries and organizations for 18. Oregon’s share is modest nationally, but the weekly volume shows sustained provider activity across a geographically broad market, with Portland, Eugene, Klamath Falls, Tigard and Beaverton among the leading cities. NPI registrations do not necessarily confirm active clinical capacity or immediate service availability.

ABA Workforce Mix

The registry lists 4 BCBA credentials and 8 RBT credentials, plus 1 provider with dual BCBA-RBT credentials. These categories overlap: the dual-credential provider is also represented in the BCBA and RBT counts, so they are not mutually exclusive shares of Oregon’s provider total. The broader credential data also includes a provider with MS, BCBA and LBA credentials and another with BCBA and LBA credentials, indicating that state licensure appears alongside certification. The small BCBA count relative to RBT activity suggests limited supervisory capacity for the direct-service workforce. In ABA, BCBAs oversee RBTs, guide treatment plans and monitor clinical quality, so a thin supervisory layer can constrain caseload growth even when technician recruitment is stronger.

Demographics and Provider Activity

Gender data identifies 100 female providers, 36 male providers and 9 nonbinary providers, corresponding to 69%, 25% and 6%. The registry flags 44 providers with multiple taxonomies, another reason credential categories should not be added together as distinct workforce segments. No notable organizations were identified as appearing multiple times in the update. The organization entries include behavioral health agencies and ABA entities, but the dataset does not establish their operating scale.

Oregon’s RBT-heavy, BCBA-limited profile suggests that expanding ABA access will depend on building supervisory capacity alongside direct-service hiring.
