What the code means
Vascular Neurology is a subspecialty in the evaluation, prevention, treatment and recovery from vascular diseases of the nervous system. This subspecialty includes the diagnosis and treatment of vascular events of arterial or venous origin from a large number of causes that affect the brain or spinal cord such as ischemic stroke, intracranial hemorrhage, spinal cord ischemia and spinal cord hemorrhage.

Where they are
Counted by practice location, not by mailing address or by licence state. A provider practising across a state line is counted where they practise.

Who registers under this code
873 of these are people and 51 are organisations, so 6% of the code is businesses rather than clinicians. Half of them had registered by 2012, and 51 registered in the last five years, 6% of the current population.
That is a slow-growing code, which usually means an established field replacing retirements rather than expanding.
Where the practices are
By practice-location city. City counts are noisier than state counts, because a large employer files one address for many providers.

Looking up a specific provider
These counts come from the monthly NPPES file. To check one provider, use their NPI: the lookup reads the live registry and shows whether the identifier is still active, which the monthly file cannot tell you about the last few weeks.
