Indiana recorded 5 behavioral health provider NPI deactivations this week, accounting for 3% of the national total for the period of May 4-10, 2026. All 5 deactivations were for individual providers, with no organizational NPIs affected in the state during this timeframe.
Credential and Geographic Trends
The 5 deactivations were distributed across various behavioral health specialties. Each of the following credentials accounted for one deactivation, representing 20% of the total: Clinical Social Worker, Specialist, Addiction (Substance Use Disorder) Counselor, BCBA, and RBT. This indicates a broad spread of administrative changes across different areas of behavioral health practice rather than a concentration in one specific field. Geographically, Indianapolis recorded the highest number of deactivations with 2 records. The remaining deactivations were distributed across South Bend, Fort Wayne, and Jeffersonville, each with 1 record. This suggests that the NPI deactivations were not concentrated in a single metropolitan area within Indiana this week.
NPI deactivations are administrative updates within the federal NPPES registry. While CMS typically scrubs name and address data from deactivated records, Hipa.ai retains a name cache from public CMS files captured before deactivation. These changes do not inherently indicate a provider has stopped practicing or faced disciplinary action.
