Yesterday the Department of Health (DOH) released the much anticipated proposed temporary regulations for physicians that among other items, set forth requirements regarding: the physician registry, the completion by physicians of a four-hour training course, and issuing patient certifications, as well as prohibitions, including for example, a prohibition against advertising a physician’s ability to prescribe cannabis under the Pennsylvania Medical Marijuana Act (Act 16). As the proposed regulations are not yet effective, DOH will accept comments on them until April 20, 2017. More information about these draft regulations appears on the DOH website, and they are available here.
