Puerto Rico has 22 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, with a reported 0% of the national weekly total. That rounded share signals that the island accounts for a very small portion of newly recorded provider activity nationally; it does not mean there was no activity. The registry lists 10 providers added this week and 12 this year. Records include 19 individuals and 3 organizations, and do not by themselves confirm hiring, staffing levels or appointment availability.
Credential mix
The credential summary lists 0 BCBAs, 0 RBTs and no dual BCBA-RBT credentials. Instead, it records a range of other credentials, including social work, psychology, medicine and speech-language pathology. These credential categories and provider taxonomies can overlap, so they should not be treated as mutually exclusive workforce shares. The absence of BCBA and RBT records means this update provides no evidence of ABA-specific supervisor or technician capacity. Since BCBAs supervise RBTs, the registry’s broad behavioral health activity cannot establish whether Puerto Rico has enough ABA supervision to support direct services. Five providers have multiple taxonomies, another reason the classifications do not represent separate groups.
Demographics and organizations
Women make up 15 providers, or 79%; men account for 4, or 21%. The data lists no nonbinary providers. These demographics cover the recorded provider population, not ABA practitioners specifically. No organizations appear in the notable-organizations field, and the listed organization names do not repeat. Provider records span cities including San Juan, Caguas, Anasco, Camuy and Bayamon.
Puerto Rico’s update shows activity across behavioral health disciplines but no credentialed BCBA or RBT records, leaving ABA workforce depth and access unclear from this registry snapshot.
