Statewide totals

Active NPI records90,657
Registered sole proprietors22,429 (24.7%)

The sole-proprietor flag is self-reported, so the 24.7% share is an imperfect proxy for private practice in Utah. It should be read as a registry classification of records, not a definitive measure of independent clinicians or practices.
