For the week of March 16-22, 2026, Indiana recorded **5 physician NPI deactivations**, representing **3%** of the national total. All **5 deactivations** were for individual providers, with no organizational NPIs deactivated in the state during this period.
Credential and Geographic Distribution
The deactivated records showed a varied distribution across specialties and locations. **Five distinct primary taxonomies** were identified, with each accounting for **20%** of the total deactivations. These included General Practice (207QG0300X), Pediatrics (207P00000X), Anesthesiology (207L00000X), Family Medicine (207Y00000X), and Internal Medicine (207X00000X). Each of these taxonomies was associated with a single deactivated NPI. Geographically, deactivations were spread across **five different cities**: Dyer, Crown Point, Jeff, Bloomington, and Fort Wayne. This broad distribution suggests no particular concentration by specialty or geographic area in this week's administrative updates.
Understanding NPI Deactivations
NPI deactivations are administrative status changes within the federal NPPES registry. This status change does not inherently indicate a license action or that a provider has ceased practicing. Hipa.ai retains a name cache from public CMS files captured before deactivation.
