Wyoming added 7 behavioral health providers in the latest weekly CMS NPI registry update. This represents 0% of the national weekly total, indicating minimal expansion in the state's behavioral health sector compared to broader national trends. All 7 providers were new this week, comprising 6 individuals and 1 organization, "Supportive Care of Wyoming LLC."
Credentialing and ABA Workforce
Crucially for the ABA industry, this week's data shows no new Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) or Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) credentials in Wyoming. There were also no individuals reported with dual BCBA and RBT credentials, which typically signals career progression within the field. One individual was listed with a PPC credential, indicating a focus outside of direct ABA service provision. The absence of these key ABA credentials means there was no direct growth in the state's supervised ABA workforce this reporting period, which could impact the availability of services.
Provider Demographics
Among the 6 individual providers added, the workforce is predominantly female, with 5 women accounting for 83%. One male provider makes up 17% of the individual additions. No nonbinary providers were reported. The new providers are distributed across cities like Riverton, Buffalo, Moorcroft, Cheyenne, and Gillette, with no single organization appearing multiple times in this week's update.
The lack of new BCBA and RBT credentials in this update suggests that Wyoming's capacity for direct ABA service delivery and supervision remains unchanged by this week's additions, highlighting a potential area for future workforce development.
