Chiropractic board reports stability after governance changes, seeks level funding
Summary
The Mississippi Board of Chiropractic reported 839 total licenses and governance changes in FY24 that improved operations; it asked for level funding in FY26 and said most recent complaints were resolved via consent agreements.
The Mississippi Board of Chiropractic told the appropriations subcommittee it now licenses 839 total credential types, including chiropractors and chiropractic assistants, and is requesting level funding for FY26.
Executive Director Wyvonne Laird said the board licenses 839 practitioners and registration types and has seen seven complaints so far in the year, most resolved with consent agreements. Denise (board staff) said the board was revamped in FY24, appointed an executive director and used new authority to send board members to national meetings and improve database capacity.
The board said it has implemented a process to authorize a board member to clear preceptors for interns or externs on an interim basis and then ratify those clearances at the next meeting, shortening delays students previously reported.
Ending: Senators thanked the board for the update and had no further questions.
