North Carolina recorded 5 physician NPI deactivations this week, accounting for 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 deactivations spanned diverse specialties, with one NPI each in Obstetrics & Gynecology, Family Medicine, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Psychiatry, and Pediatric Adolescent Medicine. This distribution indicates no single specialty concentration among the deactivated records. Geographically, the deactivations were similarly dispersed across 5 different cities: Fayetteville, Climax, Winston Salem, Raleigh, and Morehead City, suggesting no specific urban or rural focus.
Registry Status
These NPI deactivations reflect administrative status changes within the federal NPPES registry and do not inherently indicate a cessation of practice or a license action for any specific provider.
