Certificate of Need; authorize additional beds in a community living program for disabled adults in Madison County.
SB 2687 would have required a Certificate of Need (CON) approval before adding beds to community living programs for developmentally disabled adults in Madison County, Mississippi. This means providers would need state health department permission to expand bed capacity in these specific facilities, aligning with existing CON rules for other health care expansions. The bill directly affected community living programs serving disabled adults in Madison County by adding this regulatory step. However, the bill died in committee on February 4, 2025, and did not become law.
