What the count covers

291 NPPES records list health educator (174H00000X) as their primary taxonomy with a practice address in Texas: 1 per 100,000 residents against 1.9 nationally (50 states and D.C.). Houston has 57 of them (20%).

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.
