15 Miss. Code. R. 9-91-6.7
A CON may be amended to reflect changes in the defined scope and/or physical location if said amendment is necessary to be in compliance with licensing laws of the State or for certification under Title XVIII or Title XIX of the Social Security Act. Any such necessity to be in compliance shall be documented in writing from the administrative head of the Health Facilities Licensure and Certification Division.
A CON may also be amended when no substantial change exists in construction, service, or capital expenditure when extenuating circumstances or events, as determined by the State Department of Health, inhibit completion of a Certificate of Need as originally presented in final form.
Requests for amendments to CON must be submitted in writing to the Department only during the valid CON period and in the form and detail as may be required by the Department. The amount of the fee to be assessed on amendments will be calculated as follows:
.50 of 1% of the additional capital expenditure, not to exceed $25,000 but not less than $2,500.00.
NOTE: Amendments which result from an additional capital expenditure or a change in scope of project will be reviewed as a separate project and will require an additional fee.
No CON will be amended after the proponent has submitted the final report to the Department indicating completion of the project for which the Certificate of Need was issued, and the State Department of Health has acknowledged in writing the receipt of said final report.
