Mississippi had ninety-two (92) non-federal medical/surgical hospitals in FY 2020, with a total of 10,534 licensed acute care beds (plus 558 beds held in abeyance by MSDH). This total also excludes long-term acute care (LTAC), rehabilitation, psychiatric, chemical dependency, and other special purpose beds. In addition, numerous facilities provide specific health care services on an outpatient basis. Some of these facilities are freestanding, others are closely affiliated with hospitals. Such facilities offer an increasingly wider range of services, many of which were once available only in inpatient acute care settings. Examples include diagnostic imaging, therapeutic radiation, and ambulatory surgery.
