What the count covers

486 NPPES records list addiction (substance use disorder) counselor (101YA0400X) as their primary taxonomy with a practice address in Tennessee: 7 per 100,000 residents against 28 nationally (50 states and D.C.). Chattanooga has 81 of them (17%).

A record is a registration a provider made and keeps up to date: it shows neither that the provider is licensed nor that they still practice there. The state's own license search is the check.
