MMMA Caregivers and the MMFLA: What, If Anything, Has Changed?
Anybody who is a registered qualifying patient or registered caregiver with the State of Michigan operating under the Michigan Medical Marijuana Act (MMMA) will not be affected by the brand-new MMFLA. The very same rights, privileges, immunities as well as protections available under the MMMA will certainly still apply to patients and also caregivers that are adhering to the policies. Consequently, a patient or caregiver might continue to grow medical marijuana, as long as it is done within the boundaries developed by the MMMA, with no additional policies, constraints or laws.
The Medical Marijuana Facilities Licensing Act (MMFLA) does not conflict with, modification, or modify, whatsoever, the MMMA. The MMFLA creates the capacity for persons to obtain licenses to operate companies in the medical cannabis sector. Such companies will certainly enable greater access to registered patients and also caregivers to acquire medical marijuana on their own and their patients.
Those greater access opportunities for obtaining medical marijuana for patients and caregivers will certainly originate from the ability to acquire risk-free, tested and quality medical cannabis, both leaf, edible and also in other processed forms, from licensed provisioning centers (what were previously and also commonly referred to as dispensaries). Patients will be enabled to acquire up to 2.5 ounces of usable cannabis from a licensed provisioning center. Primary caregivers will certainly have the ability to assist their patients with acquiring and using medical marijuana. However, under the MMFLA, a registered caregiver that is unable to produce enough usable cannabis for a patient from their own cultivation will be able to acquire medical cannabis for their registered patient at a licensed provisioning center.
The bottom line for caregivers: you will not be affected by the requirements of the MMFLA as well as you might continue to run with the very same guidelines, regulations and limitations placed upon your patients and you as set forth in the MMMA.
