Florida recorded 7 NPI deactivations for nurses during the week of 2026-W23. This figure represents 10% of the national total for nurse deactivations in the period. All 7 deactivations were for individual providers, with no organizational NPIs deactivated in the state.
Credential and Geographic Distribution
Among the deactivated NPIs, Family Nurse Practitioners and Psychiatric/Mental Health Nurse Practitioners were the most frequent, each accounting for 2 deactivations. These two specialties each represented 29% of Florida's total nurse deactivations for the week. Registered Nurses, Adult Health Nurse Practitioners, and Licensed Practical Nurses each saw 1 deactivation, making up 14% of the total respectively.
Geographically, deactivations were distributed across several cities. Palm Beach Gardens, Panama City, Naples, Vero Beach, and Jacksonville each recorded 1 deactivation. This broad distribution suggests no particular urban concentration for these administrative updates.
NPI deactivations reflect administrative status changes within the federal NPPES registry and do not automatically indicate a provider has ceased practice or faced a license action.
