Louisiana recorded 6 physician deactivations in the NPI registry during the week of August 31 through September 6, 2026, accounting for 3% of the national total. The records comprised 5 individuals and 1 organization. An NPI deactivation is an administrative registry change and does not by itself establish that a provider has stopped practicing or faced a license action.
Credentials
Diagnostic Radiology was the leading retired taxonomy, with 2 records and 33% of the Louisiana total. Emergency Medicine, General Practice, Cardiovascular Disease and Pediatrics each accounted for 1 record, or 17%. The mix spans several physician specialties rather than pointing to a single dominant credential group, although diagnostic radiology was the only category appearing more than once.
Locations
The listed cities include Alexandria, Amite, Eunice, Covington and New Orleans, each with 1 record. The remaining record was in Marrero. With the records distributed across six cities, the snapshot shows no concentration in one Louisiana location. The organization record was in Alexandria, while the individual records were listed in Amite, Eunice, Covington, New Orleans and Marrero.
These weekly figures describe NPPES status changes and provide a limited administrative view of Louisiana’s physician registry activity, not a direct measure of workforce exits or local access to care.
