New York recorded 12 physician NPI deactivations during the week of August 3 through August 9, 2026, representing 9% of the national total. The records included 11 individuals and 1 organization, so individual providers accounted for most of the activity.
Credentials and Locations
Internal Medicine was the most frequently listed taxonomy, with 3 deactivations. Family Medicine and Psychiatry each had 2. Forensic Pathology and Endocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism each had 1. The distribution spans primary care, behavioral health and specialized practice areas rather than a single dominant credential group.
New York City had 4 deactivations, followed by Brooklyn with 3 and Rochester with 2. One record each came from Oneida and Port Jefferson. The concentration in New York City and Brooklyn reflects the locations with the most records this week, while the remaining deactivations were distributed across several other communities.
Registry Context
An NPI deactivation is an administrative status change in the federal NPPES registry and does not by itself establish that a physician has stopped practicing or faced a licensing action. The weekly figures describe registry activity, not confirmed changes in the provider workforce.
