— 01 / The Law in MS

Where Mississippi
stands today.

Mississippi has enacted a Right-to-Try statute that does not exclude stem cell-derived therapies. In practice, that means a state-licensed physician in Mississippi may, in narrow circumstances (severe chronic or terminal illness, exhaustion of conventional options, written informed consent), discuss investigational stem cell options. The everyday practice of investigational stem cell procedures for orthopedic or wellness indications is not specifically authorized by Mississippi statute, and most adults are referred to a framework state for evaluation.

MS SB 2830 (2020) expressly includes adult MSCs from bone marrow.

— 03 / Important Distinctions

What this does not mean.

Travelling to a framework state does not make an investigational procedure FDA-approved. It remains investigational.
Submitting an intake from Mississippi does not establish a physician-patient relationship and does not constitute a medical recommendation.
Whether any procedure is appropriate is a clinical decision determined by an independent state-licensed treating physician at consultation.
Outcomes vary by patient and are not predictable in advance. No specific result is guaranteed.

MS patient
questions.

Are stem cell procedures legal in Mississippi?

Mississippi has not enacted a state-specific stem cell statute. Stem cell procedures performed inside Mississippi are governed by federal FDA rules. Adults from Mississippi who wish to receive an investigational stem cell procedure most often travel to a framework state such as Florida for evaluation by a state-licensed physician.

Why Florida specifically?

Mississippi adults are typically referred to Florida or Tennessee, both within easy driving distance.

Are these procedures FDA approved?

No. The procedures discussed on this site are investigational and have not been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the indications discussed. Outcomes vary by patient and are not predictable in advance.

How much does it cost?

Cost depends on the indication, the cell product, and the treating physician. Each network physician sets their own pricing and provides a written estimate prior to scheduling. Select Stem Cell does not collect medical fees on behalf of physicians.
