An NPI deactivation is an administrative status change in the federal NPPES registry. It does not automatically signify a license action or that a provider has stopped practicing. Hipa.ai maintains a name cache from public CMS files captured before deactivation, as CMS typically scrubs name and address information from deactivated records.
