International physicians; authorize MS license for certain who are sponsored by an in-state health care provider.

Summary

The bill would let the Mississippi Board of Medical Licensure issue temporary licenses to foreign‑trained physicians who have a job offer from a state health provider and meet certain exam and immigration criteria. After three years of active practice, the provisional license would automatically become a full license. It aims to increase physician access, especially in rural and primary‑care areas.
