At MCI, there is separate screening for each gate or small group of gates, so I would expect rescreening to be required.

To get to any sort of concessions or more than a gate or two over, you will need to reclear security.
I don't think there are any concessions after any screening checkpoint, just the gate seating areas and luckily, restrooms.
