Florida recorded 14 physician deactivations in the NPI registry during the week of August 24 through August 30, representing 7% of the national total. The update included 13 individuals and 1 organization. The records were deactivated on August 27. An NPI deactivation is an administrative registry change and does not, by itself, establish that a provider has stopped practicing or faced a licensure action.

Credentials and Locations

Four taxonomies tied for the largest representation, each with 2 records: Ophthalmology, Family Medicine, Diagnostic Radiology and Psychiatry. Each accounted for 14% of Florida’s total. Anesthesiology followed with 1 record, or 7%. The leading city was Miami, with 3 deactivations. St. Petersburg, Pensacola, Sunrise and Jacksonville each had 1. The city distribution places the largest single concentration in Miami, while the remaining listed activity spans multiple Florida communities rather than forming a broad concentration in one location.

Registry Context

The update includes individual records across additional physician taxonomies, including Emergency Medicine, Anatomic Pathology & Clinical Pathology, Adult Medicine, Vascular Surgery and Internal Medicine. One organization, Impower, Inc., appears in the Psychiatry taxonomy and is based in Orlando. These classifications describe how records were represented in the NPI registry during the reporting week; they do not measure active caseloads, staffing levels or appointment availability.

Florida’s weekly data show a predominantly individual set of administrative deactivations, with the most frequent taxonomies split across four specialties and Miami providing the largest city grouping.
