Illinois recorded 8 physician deactivations in the NPI registry during the week of Aug. 24 through Aug. 30, 2026, accounting for 4% of the national total. The records include 7 individuals and 1 organization. The individual records represent most of the state’s activity in this weekly update, while the organization record accounts for the remainder.
Credential Mix
Family Medicine was the leading taxonomy, appearing on 3 records and accounting for 38% of Illinois deactivations in the Physicians segment. Internal Medicine, Anesthesiology, Pediatrics and Pediatric Anesthesiology each appeared on 1 record, or 13%. The mix spans primary care, pediatric care and anesthesiology-related specialties, with Family Medicine the only taxonomy appearing more than once. These classifications describe the provider types recorded in the registry and do not establish current clinical activity.
City Distribution
Glen Carbon, Kenilworth, Blue Island, Elmhurst and Chicago each appeared once among the listed leading cities. The remaining records were associated with Hopedale, Northbrook and Lake Forest. With no city appearing more than once in the leading-city data, the week’s deactivations do not show a concentrated geographic pattern. The distribution instead reflects records spread across several Illinois communities, including the Chicago area and locations outside it.
NPI deactivation is an administrative registry status and, by itself, does not confirm a license action or that a physician or organization has stopped practicing.
