Minnesota saw 8 NPI deactivations among Behavioral Health Providers during the week of June 8-14, 2026. This represents 4% of the national total for the category. Of these deactivations, 7 were individual providers and 1 was an organization.
Credential and Geographic Trends
An analysis of the deactivated NPIs reveals that Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) accounted for the highest number, with 3 deactivations, representing 38% of the total. Mental Health Counselors followed with 2 deactivations, making up 25%. Other credentials, including Professional Counselor (13%), Speech-Language Pathologist (13%), and Clinical Social Worker (13%), each saw 1 deactivation. Geographically, Burnsville recorded the most deactivations with 2 providers, while Apple Valley, Minneapolis, Hopkins, and Grand Rapids each had 1 deactivation.
Understanding Deactivation Data
NPI deactivations are administrative status changes within the federal NPPES registry. These changes do not inherently indicate a license action against a provider or that a provider has ceased practicing. Hipa.ai retains a name cache from public CMS files captured before deactivation, providing historical context for these records.
