Statewide totals

Active NPI records39,325
Registered sole proprietors7,670 (19.5%)

The sole-proprietor flag is self-reported, so the 19.5% share is an administrative indicator rather than a precise measure of private practice. It may not capture every independent practice arrangement and should be considered alongside other information about the New Hampshire market.
