Georgia recorded 9 physician NPI deactivations during the week of April 27 to May 3, 2026, representing 5% of the national total for physicians. All 9 deactivations were for individual providers, with no organizational NPIs deactivated in the state during this period.
Specialty and Geographic Distribution
Among the deactivated NPIs, Pediatrics and Family Medicine each accounted for 2 individuals, representing 22% of the state's total deactivations. Gastroenterology, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, and Emergency Medical Services (Emergency Medicine) each saw 1 deactivation, making up 11% of the total respectively. Geographically, deactivations were distributed across multiple locations, with Forest Park, Roswell, Augusta, Carrollton, and McDonough each recording 1 deactivation. This distribution indicates no single city or region experienced a notable concentration of deactivations this week.
These NPI deactivations are administrative updates in the federal NPPES registry. An NPI deactivation does not by itself indicate a license action or that a provider has stopped practicing. While CMS scrubs name and address information from most deactivated records, Hipa.ai retains a name cache from public CMS files captured prior to deactivation for ongoing workforce analysis.
