What the count covers

631 NPPES records list surgery physician (208600000X) as their primary taxonomy with a practice address in Tennessee: 9 per 100,000 residents against 10 nationally (50 states and D.C.). Nashville has 117 of them (19%).

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.
