Texas saw 7 NPI deactivations for Physicians between April 27 and May 3, 2026, representing 4% of the national total for the week. This week's deactivations included 3 individual providers and 4 organizations.
Specialty and Geographic Distribution
Among the deactivated NPIs, Family Medicine and Orthopaedic Surgery each accounted for two records, representing 29% of the total deactivations. The remaining deactivations were distributed among Pediatrics, Anatomic Pathology & Clinical Pathology, and Dermatology, with one deactivation each, making up 14% of the total for each specialty. Geographically, Austin recorded 2 deactivations. The remaining 5 deactivations were spread across Winnsboro, Brownsville, Irving, and Amarillo, each with one deactivation. The concentration of two Orthopaedic Surgery organizations in Austin suggests a localized administrative change for those specific entities.
These NPI deactivations reflect administrative status changes within the NPPES registry and do not inherently indicate a provider has ceased practice or undergone a license action.
