Florida recorded 6 nurse deactivations in the NPI registry during the week of Aug. 17-23, 2026, accounting for 11% of the national total. The records include 4 individuals and 2 organizations. An NPI deactivation is an administrative status change in the federal registry and does not by itself indicate a license action or confirm that a provider has stopped practicing.
Credentials and Locations
Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist was the most common retired credential, with 2 records. Nurse Practitioner, Family Nurse Practitioner, Primary Care Nurse Practitioner and Adult Health Nurse Practitioner each appeared once. The city data shows one deactivation apiece in Pensacola, Deerfield Beach, Panama City, Lake City and Miami. The provider records also include an organization in New Smyrna Beach. With the listed cities each contributing one record, the activity was distributed across locations rather than concentrated in a single Florida market.
Registry Context
The credential and location breakdown describes the composition of this week’s registry changes, not the size of Florida’s nursing workforce or the availability of clinical services. The NPI registry also distinguishes individuals from organizations, so the records represent different types of administrative entities. CMS removes names, addresses and taxonomy information from most deactivated records; Hipa.ai retains a name cache from public CMS files captured before deactivation. Florida’s weekly data therefore provides a limited administrative snapshot and should not be used alone to draw conclusions about specific providers, employers or patient access.
