Texas recorded 5 nurse-category deactivations in the week of September 21–27, 2026, accounting for 7% of the national total. The records comprise 4 individuals and 1 organization. Deactivation is an administrative change in the federal NPI registry; it does not by itself indicate a license action or that a provider has stopped practicing.
Credentials and locations
Registered nurses were the most common credential, with 2 records. The remaining records were one each for a nurse practitioner, a certified registered nurse anesthetist and a family nurse practitioner. The organization’s listed taxonomy is Clinical Social Worker, rather than a nursing credential, so the category total includes a record that does not match the nursing credentials in the breakdown.
The five records span Dallas, Houston, Austin, San Augustine and Denton, with one in each city. That distribution shows no concentration in a single city in this week’s data; the small number of records also limits what can be inferred about broader geographic patterns.
Registry context
CMS removes names, addresses and taxonomy information from most deactivated records. Hipa.ai retains a name cache from public CMS files captured before deactivation, but a registry status change alone does not establish a provider’s current work or availability. The weekly figures describe NPI records, not confirmed departures from Texas’s nursing workforce.
