What the count covers

142 NPPES records list child & adolescent psychiatry physician (2084P0804X) as their primary taxonomy with a practice address in Georgia: 1.3 per 100,000 residents against 2.3 nationally (50 states and D.C.). Atlanta has 52 of them (37%).

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.
