New York recorded 11 physician deactivations in the latest weekly NPI registry update, representing 6% of the national total. The records cover 10 individuals and one organization. The update covers deactivations from September 7 through September 13, 2026.
Specialty Mix
Family Medicine, Psychiatry and Surgery each accounted for 2 deactivations, making them the leading specialties in the state’s update. Neurology and Urology each appeared once. The distribution spans primary care, behavioral health and surgical specialties rather than centering on a single field. The specialty counts describe the taxonomies attached to deactivated NPI records and do not establish changes in the active workforce or clinical capacity.
City Distribution
Buffalo was the only city with more than one listed deactivation, with 2 records. Goshen, Remsenburg, Batavia and New York each had one. The remaining records were distributed across Yonkers, Rock Stream, Oyster Bay Cove, Brooklyn and Newburgh. The geographic pattern is therefore dispersed, with Buffalo showing the only repeated city in the file, rather than indicating a concentration in one metropolitan area.
NPI deactivation is an administrative status change in the federal registry and, without additional evidence, does not by itself indicate a license action or that a provider has stopped practicing.
