Michigan recorded 5 behavioral health provider deactivations during the week of Aug. 31 through Sept. 6, 2026, representing 3% of the national total in this registry update. All five records were individuals; no organizations were listed. The deactivations were recorded on Sept. 3. NPI deactivation is an administrative status change in the federal registry and does not by itself establish that a provider has stopped practicing or faced a licensing action.
Credential Mix
Registered behavior technicians were the largest retired taxonomy, with 2 records, or 40% of Michigan’s total. Clinical social workers, psychologists and day training/habilitation specialists each accounted for one record, or 20% apiece. The mix spans direct behavioral support, social work, psychology and habilitation services rather than concentrating in a single credential category. Because each category has a small count, the distribution provides limited evidence of a broader workforce pattern.
Geographic Distribution
The records were spread across five cities: Ann Arbor, Detroit, Port Huron, Farmington Hills and Clinton Township, with one deactivation in each. No city accounted for more than one record, so the update shows geographic dispersion rather than a concentration in a particular Michigan market. Hipa.ai retains provider names from public CMS files captured before deactivation, while CMS removes names, addresses and taxonomies from most deactivated records.
These figures describe NPI registry status changes for the week, not confirmed changes in Michigan’s practicing behavioral health workforce.
