Florida saw 14 NPI deactivations among Behavioral Health Providers this week, representing 7% of the national total. Of these, 11 were individual providers and 3 were organizations.
Credential Breakdown
An analysis of the deactivated NPIs by credential shows that Mental Health Counselors accounted for the largest share, with 4 deactivations, or 29% of the state's total. Clinical Social Workers, RBTs, Specialists, and Psychologists each saw 2 deactivations, each representing 14% of the total. This distribution indicates deactivations across various behavioral health specialties.
Geographic Distribution
Geographically, Miami recorded the highest number of deactivations, with 2 providers. Other cities with single deactivations included North Miami, Winter Haven, Ft Lauderdale, and Crescent City. The presence of multiple deactivations in the Miami area suggests some concentration in the southeastern part of the state.
These NPI deactivations reflect administrative status changes within the federal NPPES registry and do not inherently indicate changes in licensure or practice status for individual providers or organizations.
