New Medical Cannabis Program goes into effect across the state
This expands the eligibility criteria for patients who can benefit from medical cannabis and makes it easier for them to be certified by a medical practitioner.
A new Medical Cannabis Program certification and registration system went into effect on Monday across the state.
This expands the eligibility criteria for patients who can benefit from medical cannabis and makes it easier for them to be certified by a medical practitioner.
Last year's marijuana regulation and taxation act ensured that this new system will be run by the office of cannabis management instead of the health department.
The program was first proposed back in October.
Patients who are certified through the new certification and registration system will be issued a new certification from the New York State Office of Cannabis Management after the current one expires.
Caregivers will be reissued registry ID cards to identify the patients they are authorized to assist.
