What the count covers

509 NPPES records list psychologist (103T00000X) as their primary taxonomy with a practice address in Tennessee: 7 per 100,000 residents against 14 nationally (50 states and D.C.). Nashville has 123 of them (24%).

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.
