Pennsylvania recorded 10 physician NPI deactivations during the week of June 8-14, 2026. This figure represents 6% of the national total for physician deactivations in the same period. The deactivations included 9 individual providers and 1 organization, reflecting administrative status changes within the state's physician workforce.
Credential and Geographic Trends
Among the deactivated NPIs, Surgery and Family Medicine were the most frequently observed specialties, each accounting for 2 deactivations. These two specialties combined represented 40% of the total deactivations. Other specialties with single deactivations included General Practice, Medical Oncology, and Orthopaedic Surgery. Geographically, the deactivations were distributed across various distinct locations. Johnstown, Scranton, Donora, Danville, and Greencastle each recorded 1 deactivation, indicating no single urban or rural concentration for this week's data. This broad distribution suggests that the deactivations were not localized to any particular region within Pennsylvania.
Data Context
NPI deactivations are administrative updates within the federal NPPES registry. These status changes reflect updates to a provider's NPI record and do not inherently signify a license action or that a provider has ceased practicing in the state.
