What the count covers

359 NPPES records list pulmonary disease physician (207RP1001X) as their primary taxonomy with a practice address in Tennessee: 5 per 100,000 residents against 4.6 nationally (50 states and D.C.). Nashville has 106 of them (30%).

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.
