The terms of the agreement mean big payments to the doctor and the government

I live in one of the southern bible states and it is extremely difficult to acquire medical marijuana.

  • Many states in the area have already legalized medical and recreational marijuana.

I have no doubt that this place will be the last to ever allow legal recreational marijuana. They dragged their feet when it came to medical marijuana. The laws are still very exact on who can be prescribed medical marijuana. In order to qualify, you have to see a doctor or specialist that has the ability to prescribe medical marijuana. There are only a handful of doctors that can prescribe medical of marijuana and they all charge a heap of money if you want to become certified. I looked into the prices and the terms of the agreement mean big payments to the doctor and the government. Each year the doctor has to sign the prescription for medical marijuana. Doctors in this area require you to be a patient for six months or more before they will assign medical marijuana. The state requires each patient to certify every eight months. The state has their own set of fees for the medical marijuana license. It costs hundreds and hundreds of dollars to have access to medical marijuana. I can’t think of any other medically prescribed medicine that the government makes you pay a fee to access. Before I was finished paying all of the fees, I had paid almost $1,000 to the government and the doctor just so I could access medical marijuana. It seems like a huge money racquet if you ask me.
