Credential and Geographic Distribution
Analysis of the deactivated NPIs shows Family Medicine as the most frequently observed specialty, with 5 records, accounting for 24% of the total. Internal Medicine followed with 3 deactivations, representing 14%. General Practice and Obstetrics & Gynecology each accounted for 2 deactivations, making up 10% each of the total. Neurology also recorded 1 deactivation. Geographically, Houston reported the highest number of deactivations, with 7 records. Amarillo followed with 2 deactivations, while Frisco, Cibolo, and Dallas each registered 1. This distribution indicates deactivations occurred across various specialties and were most concentrated in the Houston area, a major metropolitan center in Texas.
These NPI deactivations are administrative status changes within the federal NPPES registry and do not inherently indicate a license action or that a provider has ceased practice. Hipa.ai retains a name cache for these records from public CMS files captured prior to deactivation.
