Arizona recorded 7 NPI deactivations for Behavioral Health Providers during the week of May 4-10, 2026. This figure represents 4% of the national total for behavioral health NPI deactivations in that period. The deactivations included 5 individual providers and 2 organizations.
Credential and Practice Type Deactivations
Among the deactivated records, 'Community/Behavioral Health Agency' and 'Clinical Social Worker' each accounted for 2 deactivations, representing 29% of the total respectively. Other credentials included 'Psychologist', 'Specialist', and 'RBT', each with 1 deactivation, each making up 14% of the total. This distribution indicates deactivations across various behavioral health specialties and organizational types.
Geographic Distribution
Geographically, Chandler recorded 2 deactivations, accounting for the highest count in any single city. Tucson, Phoenix, Yuma, and Ft. Huachuca each had 1 deactivation. The deactivations are spread across multiple cities in Arizona, rather than concentrated in one specific urban area.
It is important to note that NPI deactivations are administrative status changes within the federal NPPES registry. They do not by themselves indicate a license action or that a provider has stopped practicing. Hipa.ai retains a name cache from public CMS files captured before deactivation, providing a historical record.
