Introduced
by
To revise the conditions under which a physician may prescribe and authorize medical marijuana for a person, limiting this authority to “bona fide physical-patient relationships,” as defined in the bill. This would require the doctor to take a medical history of the patient; perform a relevant physical examination; review prior treatment, treatment responses and diagnostic test results; discuss advantages, disadvantages, alternatives, etc.; provide for monitoring; create and maintain records; and notify the patient's primary care physician, if any. Because the state’s <a href=“http://www.michiganvotes.org/2008-il-1”>medical marijuana law</a> was adopted in a popular vote, the measure would require a three-fourths vote.
