Mississippi

A nonresident dietitian may practice dietetics in Mississippi for 5 days per year with current or other state’s licensure or with current registration with the Commission on Dietetics Registration. Anything more than that requires a license.

In order to provide telehealth services, you must register as a telehealth provider and provide documentation of liability insurance and business registration.
