Medical cannabis; eliminate mandatory follow-up visit and extend validity periods of certification and ID cards to 24 months.

Summary

HB 895 proposes to eliminate the mandatory six‑month follow‑up visit for patients after they receive a medical cannabis certification, allowing doctors to request follow‑ups only at their discretion. It also extends the expiration of registry ID cards for resident designated caregivers from one to two years and lifts THC potency caps on certain cannabis extracts. The changes aim to reduce paperwork for patients and providers while giving caregivers longer‑lasting cards and permitting higher‑strength products.
