Mississippi HB979 mandates the Division of Medicaid to exclude providers involved in abortions not permitted under state law from participating in the Medicaid program. This includes providers performing, referring for, or affiliated with such abortions, or under common ownership with entities engaged in abortion-related activities inconsistent with state law. The Division must update its credentialing and contracting procedures within 120 days, requiring providers to attest to their compliance with these standards.
