What the count covers

1,118 NPPES records list surgical assistant (246ZC0007X) as their primary taxonomy with a practice address in Texas: 3.7 per 100,000 residents against 1.4 nationally (50 states and D.C.). Houston has 246 of them (22%).

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.
