Methodology & limitations

Figures are counts of normalized records stored in Med Radar's practice database for the United States and Canada, computed on October 5, 2026. Records come mainly from the public CMS NPI registry (NPPES), merged with public business-listing and website evidence.

"Independent-practice candidates" are records Med Radar classifies as confirmed or likely owner-operated based on public evidence; this is a research signal, not a legal determination. "Recently enumerated" means the NPI was registered within the last two years, which is not the same as a verified opening date.

Segment definition: NPI taxonomy 207X (Orthopaedic Surgery) and its subspecialties, excluding dentofacial orthopedics.

Counts are not a census: practices without an NPI, with a mailing address in another city, or classified under a different taxonomy may be missing or counted elsewhere. Hospitals and large health systems are filtered out of Med Radar search results but may appear in raw record counts.
