582 active neurologists are listed in Maryland per the 2026-05-06 CMS NPPES snapshot. That works out to 9.29 per 100,000 residents using U.S. Census 2024 population estimates.

Where does Maryland rank nationally for neurologist supply?

Maryland ranks 8 of 51 U.S. states + DC by per-capita neurologist density. It sits above the parent study's underserved threshold.

Limitations

This figure measures density (per-capita supply), not access. Drive time, appointment availability, insurance acceptance, and wait times are not modeled here.
The CMS NPPES registry counts NPI-1 individual providers with the relevant taxonomy code. It does not capture PA-led or NP-led practices that operate under a different taxonomy.
NPPES does not publish a county-level field of practice in its public API. County- and ZIP-scoped queries surface state-level density, with the geographic context preserved on this page.
Population is the U.S. Census Bureau 2024 vintage estimate. Population shifts post-2024 are not yet reflected.
The "underserved" threshold is the parent study's transparent baseline cutoff; it is not a regulatory or clinical definition. See the parent study for the rationale.
