New York recorded 8 behavioral health provider deactivations during the week of August 17 through August 23, representing 5% of the national total. The records include 6 individuals and 2 organizations. 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 lost a license.

Credentials

Clinical Social Worker was the most frequently retired taxonomy, with 3 records, or 38% of New York’s total. Mental Health Counselor and Specialist each accounted for 2 records, or 25% each. Assistant Behavior Analyst accounted for 1 record, or 13%. The distribution spans several behavioral health roles rather than concentrating in a single credential group, although Clinical Social Worker records formed the largest category.

Locations

New York had the highest city count, with 2 deactivations. Nyack, Staten Island, Buffalo and Sunnyside each had 1. The remaining records were distributed across multiple locations, so the city data shows limited concentration in any one area beyond New York. The registry lists organizations in Brooklyn and New York, while the individual records include the other reported cities.

These figures describe weekly NPI registry status changes in New York and should be read as administrative workforce data, not as a direct measure of current practice, clinical capacity or service availability.
