Mississippi Code Title 73. Professions and Vocations § 73-43-14

The State Board of Medical Licensure may appoint an executive committee, to be composed of three (3) of its members, with a chairman to be designated by the board from the members appointed to said committee. The executive committee shall have authority to execute all the powers vested in the board, in the interim of the meetings of the board. The executive committee shall have the authority to conduct licensure hearings pursuant to Section 73-25-27, provided that the power to revoke shall be subject to approval of the board. Any person aggrieved by a decision of the executive committee regarding licensure may appeal to the board. Any person aggrieved by an action of the board regarding licensure may appeal to the Chancery Court of the First Judicial District of Hinds County. Any action of the executive committee shall be legal and binding until modified or annulled by the board, and all pains and penalties prescribed for violating the rules of the board shall apply to any violation of rules and regulations that may be prescribed by the executive committee. Any two (2) members of the executive committee shall be a quorum for the transaction of business.

All official meetings of the executive committee, as to time and place, shall be held pursuant to a call of the president of the board.

Actions taken by the board in suspending a license when required by Section 93-11-157 or 93-11-163 are not actions from which an appeal may be taken under this section. Any appeal of a license suspension that is required by Section 93-11-157 or 93-11-163 shall be taken in accordance with the appeal procedure specified in Section 93-11-157 or 93-11-163, as the case may be, rather than the procedure specified in this section.
