Appropriation; Department of Health to fund the MS Hospital Emergency Grant Program.

HB 103 appropriates $50 million from Mississippi's State General Fund to the Department of Health to fund the existing Mississippi Hospital Emergency Grant Program. This program, established under a separate bill in the 2026 legislative session, provides financial support to hospitals facing emergencies. The funding is allocated for the period beginning when the bill passes and ending June 30, 2027. The bill does not create new policy but ensures continued financial support for participating hospitals through this specific grant program.
