What the count covers

298 NPPES records list midwife (176B00000X) as their primary taxonomy with a practice address in Washington: 3.8 per 100,000 residents against 1.8 nationally (50 states and D.C.). Seattle has 44 of them (15%).

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.
