Florida recorded 5 physician deactivations in the NPI registry during the week of August 3 through August 9, 2026, representing 4% of the national total. All five records were for individuals; no organizations were included in the state’s count.
Credentials and Cities
The deactivated records were evenly distributed across five retired taxonomy categories. Pediatrics, Obstetrics & Gynecology, Psychiatry, Family Medicine and General Practice each accounted for 1 record, or 20% of Florida’s total. The cities also were evenly distributed: Hollywood, Fort Myers, Saint Cloud, Leesburg and Jacksonville each had one deactivation.
Registry Scope
The distribution shows no concentration in a single credential category or city. The records covered multiple physician specialties and locations across Florida, so the weekly data does not identify a dominant specialty or geographic cluster. An NPI deactivation is an administrative status change in the federal NPPES registry and does not by itself indicate a license action or confirm that a provider has stopped practicing.
