What the count covers

55 NPPES records list lactation consultant (registered nurse) (163WL0100X) as their primary taxonomy with a practice address in Louisiana: 1.2 per 100,000 residents against 1.2 nationally (50 states and D.C.). Baton Rouge has 11 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.
