Tampa recorded 39 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, with a reported share of 0% of the national weekly total. The registry lists 18 new providers this week and 20 this year; the 39 records include 33 individuals and 6 organizations. The reported share signals that Tampa accounts for a very small portion of nationwide weekly activity, though the figure is rounded and NPI records do not show whether providers are actively practicing, accepting patients or delivering ABA services.
ABA Credential Mix
The registry lists 9 BCBA providers and 15 RBT providers, along with 2 dual credentials. The dual-credential count overlaps the BCBA and RBT categories, so those counts are not mutually exclusive and should not be added to estimate a distinct workforce. More RBTs than BCBAs points to a larger listed direct-care workforce than supervisory pool; BCBAs typically oversee RBTs, so their availability can shape service capacity. Dual BCBA-and-RBT credentials may reflect career progression, but the registry does not establish current job duties. The update also reports 7 providers with multiple taxonomies, another reason classifications may overlap.
Workforce Demographics
Women account for 24 listed providers (73%), men 8 (24%), and nonbinary providers 1 (3%). Delanie Substance Abuse Counseling & Wellness Inc. appears twice, the only organization identified in the supplied data as appearing multiple times. These records span behavioral health fields and do not establish the organization’s ABA activity. Taken together, Tampa’s registry shows a substantial RBT presence alongside a smaller BCBA pool, underscoring the importance of supervisory capacity as local ABA access and workforce development evolve.
