Colorado recorded 5 physician NPI deactivations during the week of July 20-26, 2026. This figure represents 3% of the national total for physician deactivations in the same period. All 5 deactivations were for individual providers, with no organizational NPIs deactivated in the state this week.
Specialty Deactivations
Among the deactivated NPIs, Family Medicine accounted for 2 (40%) of the total. Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Hematology (Internal Medicine), and Spinal Cord Injury Medicine each saw 1 (20%) deactivation. This distribution highlights deactivations across a range of medical specialties rather than a concentration in a single area.
Geographic Distribution
The deactivations were distributed across 5 different cities in Colorado. Colorado Springs, Boulder, Aurora, Fort Collins, and Denver each recorded 1 deactivation. This broad geographic spread indicates that the administrative changes were not concentrated in any single urban center within the state.
NPI deactivations reflect administrative status changes within the federal NPPES registry. They do not inherently indicate that a provider has ceased practicing or that a specific license action has occurred.
