Appropriation; Department of Health for making care grants under the Mississippi Qualified Health Center Grant Program.
HB 419 appropriates $4 million from Mississippi's State General Fund to the Department of Health for the Mississippi Qualified Health Center Grant Program during fiscal year 2026 (July 1, 2025-June 30, 2026). This funding directly supports community health centers that qualify under Mississippi Code § 41-99-1 et seq., helping them provide care to underserved populations. The bill establishes a specific funding amount for grants to these centers but does not create new eligibility rules or alter existing program requirements. It is a routine budgetary measure with no substantive policy changes beyond the allocated funding.
