Virginia recorded 6 physician NPI deactivations this week, accounting for 3% of the national total. All 6 deactivations were for individual physicians, with no organizational NPIs deactivated in the state during this period.
Credential and Geographic Distribution
Among the deactivated NPIs, Internal Medicine accounted for 2 physicians, representing 33% of the total. Other specialties each saw 1 deactivation, including Ophthalmology, Cardiovascular Disease, Anesthesiology, and Obstetrics & Gynecology, each making up 17% of the total. The geographic distribution of these 6 deactivations was dispersed across the state, with individual physicians located in Roanoke, Hampton, Fairfax, Danville, Newport News, and Falls Church. No single city accounted for more than 1 deactivation, suggesting no particular regional concentration for these administrative status changes within Virginia.
These NPI deactivations reflect administrative status updates in the federal registry and do not inherently indicate changes in a provider's licensure or practice status.
