This bill appropriates $1,269,591.00 in special funds to the Mississippi State Board of Dental Examiners for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2026, and ending June 30, 2027, with $720,776.00 specifically designated for "Personal Services," which includes salaries, wages, and fringe benefits for an authorized headcount of 8 permanent employees. The bill also allocates up to $27,000.00 to the Mississippi Board of Pharmacy for the Prescription Monitoring Program and emphasizes that the Board of Dental Examiners must maintain complete accounting and personnel records, adhere to the Variable Compensation Plan for employee salaries, and ensure that expenditures do not exceed appropriations, with specific provisions for "Vacancy Funding" to increase filled positions rather than current employee salaries.
