The market

How many audiologists work in Tennessee

569 audiologists hold an active individual NPI with a practice address in Tennessee, 7.8 per 100,000 residents, and 16 new ones enrolled in the last twelve months. A high wage with few clinicians per capita usually means employers are competing for people; a low one in a crowded market means the opposite.

Licensed in another state?

Tennessee is a ASLP-IC member and is issuing compact privileges: audiologists and speech-language pathologists licensed in another member state can obtain a privilege to practice in Tennessee without applying for a new state license.
