New Jersey recorded 5 physician deactivations in the NPI registry during the week of August 10 through August 16, 2026, representing 2% of the national total. The records include 4 individuals and 1 organization. An NPI deactivation is an administrative status change in the federal NPPES registry and does not, by itself, indicate a license action or confirm that a provider has stopped practicing.
Credentials
The retired taxonomy fields were evenly distributed across five specialties. Allergy and Immunology, Family Medicine, Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine, Urology and Psychiatry each appeared once, or 20% of the New Jersey records. No single credential category accounted for more than one deactivation, so the data does not show a concentrated specialty pattern for the week.
Geographic Distribution
The records were spread across five cities: Freehold, Edison, Plainsboro, Trenton and Tenafly. Each city accounted for 1 deactivation. That distribution indicates no leading city among the listed records and provides limited evidence of geographic concentration in New Jersey’s physician segment for this reporting period.
These figures describe weekly administrative activity in the NPI registry, while the registry status alone does not establish changes in active clinical practice or statewide physician availability.
