Wyoming saw a modest addition of 13 total providers in the latest CMS NPI registry update, representing 0% of the national weekly total. This minimal influx, with 5 new providers added this week, indicates very limited growth in the state's behavioral health workforce compared to national trends. The update includes 12 individual providers and 1 organization.
Credential Mix and ABA Workforce
For an ABA-focused audience, the credential mix reveals a critical gap. The data shows 0 Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs), 0 Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs), and 0 dual BCBA+RBT credentials among these new additions. This absence means the recent growth does not directly contribute to the state's ABA-specific supervision or direct service capacity. Instead, the new providers hold other behavioral health credentials, including 2 PPCs, 1 MS, LPC, 1 MSW, LCSW, 1 LPC, and 1 MA, LPC, indicating growth in general counseling and social work fields.
Workforce Demographics
The individual providers added this week are exclusively female, with 12 female providers accounting for 100% of the individual additions. There were no male or nonbinary individual providers in this update. No notable multi-state organizations, such as PE-backed ABA chains, appeared multiple times in this week's data for Wyoming. The top cities for these new providers include Cheyenne, Casper, Gillette, Evanston, and Rock Springs.
Overall, this data suggests that while Wyoming is seeing some growth in general behavioral health, there is no immediate expansion in the state's ABA workforce, potentially limiting access to ABA services for individuals needing specialized support.
