Florida recorded 8 physician-category NPI deactivations in the week of Sept. 14-20, 2026, accounting for 5% of the national total. The records comprise 5 individuals and 3 organizations. These figures describe changes in the federal NPI registry, not confirmed departures from practice. Deactivation is an administrative status change and does not by itself indicate a licensing action or that a provider has stopped practicing.
Credentials and Cities
Internal Medicine and Gynecology were the most common listed taxonomies, with 2 records each, or 25% of the state total apiece. Orthopaedic Surgery, Dermatology and Pediatrics each appeared once, representing 13% each in the supplied breakdown. The listed cities of Melbourne, Dunedin, Cooper City, Orlando and The Villages each had one record. The city distribution shows no leading location in this dataset; the records are spread across the five named cities, with three additional records elsewhere in Florida. Taxonomies identify registry classifications and should not be read as a measure of local specialty capacity or service availability.
Registry Context
The weekly tally captures NPI records deactivated during the reporting period, including both individual and organization records. It does not establish whether those entities continue providing care under another NPI or arrangement, nor does it describe changes in workforce size. 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 figures are a snapshot of registry status changes for the Physicians segment, rather than a direct measure of provider activity.
