New York recorded 13 NPI deactivations for nurses between March 23 and March 29, 2026. This figure represents 18% of the national total for nurses during this period. All 13 deactivations were for individual providers, with no organizational NPIs included in this week's update.
Deactivation Patterns
Among the deactivated NPIs, specific taxonomy codes were more prevalent. The 164W00000X code was the most frequent, accounting for 5 nurses, or 38% of the total deactivations. Following this, 163W00000X was associated with 4 deactivations, representing 31% of the total. Another 2 deactivations were linked to the 163WS0200X taxonomy, making up 15%. The remaining 2 deactivations were split between 363LP0200X and 163WH0200X, each with one instance. This distribution indicates that deactivations primarily occurred within a few key nursing taxonomies.
Geographic Distribution
Geographically, the deactivations were widely distributed across New York. No single city showed a concentration of deactivated NPIs. Cities such as WESTBURY, QUEENS VILLAGE, BRIDGEPORT, SPRING VALLEY, and ROCHESTER each recorded one deactivation. This broad spread suggests no localized trend in NPI deactivations for nurses during this week.
These NPI deactivations reflect administrative status changes within the federal registry for nursing professionals in New York, providing a snapshot of shifts in the provider landscape.
