Ohio recorded 8 behavioral health provider deactivations during the week of August 10 through August 16, accounting for 5% of the national total. All 8 were individual providers; the registry reported 0 organizations in the state’s deactivation count. The records were deactivated on August 13 or August 14. NPI deactivation is an administrative status change in the federal registry and does not by itself indicate a license action or confirm that a provider has stopped practicing.
Credentials and Cities
Mental Health Counselor was the most frequently listed retired taxonomy, with 2 records, or 25% of Ohio’s total. Clinical Social Worker, Psychologist, Professional Counselor and Addiction (Substance Use Disorder) Counselor each appeared on 1 record, or 13%. The remaining records included Case Manager/Care Coordinator and Specialist taxonomies.
The city data was broadly dispersed. Springfield, Toledo, Chillicothe, Lancaster and Waverly each recorded 1 deactivation. Additional records came from Portsmouth, Cincinnati and Washington Court House. No city accounted for more than one of the listed deactivations, indicating that the activity was spread across multiple Ohio communities rather than concentrated in a single location.
