Colorado saw 34 physician NPI deactivations this week, representing 17% of the national total. Of these, 3 were individual providers, while the majority, 31, were organizations. This data reflects administrative status changes within the NPPES registry for the period of May 25-31, 2026.
Deactivation Trends by Specialty and Location
Among the deactivated NPIs, 'General Practice' was the most common taxonomy, accounting for 7 deactivations, representing 21% of the total. Cardiovascular Disease, Neurology, and Orthopaedic Surgery each recorded 3 deactivations, each making up 9% of the total. Geographically, Colorado Springs saw the highest number of deactivations with 7 entries. Loveland followed with 4 deactivations, while Fort Collins and Greeley each had 3 deactivations. The data indicates that a significant portion of these organizational deactivations are linked to a single entity, POUDRE VALLEY MEDICAL GROUP, LLC, across various cities and specialties. This suggests administrative adjustments impacting a broader network rather than isolated individual changes.
Context of NPI Deactivations
NPI deactivations are administrative updates in the federal registry and do not inherently indicate a provider has ceased practice or faced license action. Hipa.ai retains a name cache from public CMS files captured before deactivation for these records.
