JACKSON, Miss. (AP) - Renal Care Group has received approval to expand kidney dialysis treatment in Tupelo.
The Mississippi State Department of Health announced Wednesday that it has issued a certificate of need, allowing the project to go forward.
The medical group will add a total of 30 end-stage kidney disease stations and 1,656 square feet to its facilities.
Mississippi requires a certificate of need as part of a process meant to avoid duplication of health care services and control costs.
The project is expected to cost $761,103.
