New York recorded 13 physician NPI deactivations during the week of Sept. 21-27, 2026, representing 9% of the national total. All were individual-provider records; no organization deactivations were listed. A deactivation is an administrative change in the federal registry and, by itself, does not establish that a physician has stopped practicing or faced a licensing action.
Credentials and locations
Internal Medicine was the most frequently listed taxonomy, with 4 records. Psychiatry followed with 2; Pediatric Adolescent Medicine, Diagnostic Radiology and Hospice and Palliative Medicine each had one. The distribution spans several specialties, though Internal Medicine accounted for the largest share of the listed records.
The Bronx had 3 deactivations, the most of any city in the data. New Hyde Park and New York each had 2. Clayton and Jamaica each had one; the remaining records were associated with other cities. The Bronx’s count makes it the most represented city in this weekly file, but the figures do not show whether the records correspond to separate workplaces or indicate a broader local workforce trend.
Registry context
These counts describe NPI registry status changes for the specified week, not confirmed changes in clinical capacity. CMS removes identifying details from most deactivated records; Hipa.ai retains names from public CMS files captured before deactivation. New York’s weekly physician deactivation data provide a snapshot of registry activity, not a measure of how many physicians remain available to patients.
