What the count covers

672 NPPES records list specialist (174400000X) as their primary taxonomy with a practice address in Tennessee: 9 per 100,000 residents against 18 nationally (50 states and D.C.). Nashville has 88 of them (13%).

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.
