What the count covers

67 NPPES records list surgical assistant (246ZC0007X) as their primary taxonomy with a practice address in Louisiana: 1.5 per 100,000 residents against 1.4 nationally (50 states and D.C.). Baton Rouge has 11 of them (16%).

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.
