North Carolina recorded 9 behavioral health provider deactivations in this week’s NPI registry update, representing 4% of the national total. All were individuals, while 0 organizations were listed. The records cover deactivations during the week of August 24 through August 30, 2026. An NPI deactivation is an administrative change in the federal NPPES registry and does not by itself establish that a provider has stopped practicing or faced a licensing action.

Credentials and cities

Mental Health Counselor and Specialist were the most frequently retired taxonomies, with 2 records each. Clinical Social Worker, Professional Counselor and Addiction (Substance Use Disorder) Counselor each appeared once. The city distribution was similarly limited: Raleigh had 2 deactivations, while Robbinsville, Ahoskie, Hope Mills and Wallace each had 1. Other individual records were associated with Greenville, Concord and Charlotte. With only Raleigh appearing more than once, the city pattern does not show a strong concentration in one North Carolina market.

Registry context

The listed records include counselors, a clinical social worker, specialists and an addiction counselor, indicating a mixed behavioral health classification rather than a single credential group driving the update. The registry data describes NPI status changes, not current caseloads, staffing levels, clinical capacity or appointment availability. North Carolina’s update therefore provides a snapshot of administrative activity among behavioral health providers without establishing the operating status of specific practices or individuals.
