Medical Marijuana Dispensaries Selected for All Eight Districts

The Division of Licensing and Regulatory Services (DLRS) in the Department of Health and Human Services announced the selection of the last two dispensaries needed to complete the statewide dispensary system.

The dispensary system has been established to assist registered patients whose physicians believe they will benefit from the medical use of marijuana for certain serious medical conditions.

The dispensaries were chosen based on criteria outlined in the application instructions, including their plan to operate as a non-profit corporation long-term, convenience of location, prior business experience, patient education, record-keeping, inventory, and quality control.

Those who obtained the highest scores in their Districts and met the required minimum score of 70 were:

  • District 1 (York County): Safe Harbor Maine, Inc
  • District 2 (Cumberland County): Northeast Patients Group
  • District 3 (Androscoggin, Franklin, Oxford Counties): Remedy Compassion Center
  • District 4 (Knox, Lincoln, Sagadahoc, Waldo Counties): Northeast Patients Group
  • District 5 (Kennebec, Somerset Counties): Northeast Patients Group
  • District 6 (Penobscot, Piscataquis Counties): Northeast Patients Group
  • District 7 (Hancock, Washington): Primary Organic Therapy, Inc
  • District 8 (Aroostook County): Safe Alternatives of Fort Kent

Cathy Cobb, Director of DLRS, will be meeting with each dispensary chief executive to review their progress and discuss the next steps. She anticipates it will take between two and three months for a dispensary to be open to patients.

Registered Marijuana Dispensary Application Process

Update on Application Process for Registered Marijuana Dispensaries

The Massachusetts Department of Public Health required all completed Phase 2 application forms for Registered Marijuana Dispensaries to be hand-delivered on November 21, 2013. A total of 100 Phase 2 applications were received by the Department on that day.

Only applicants who were approved in the Department?s Phase 1 review were eligible to apply for the Phase 2 of dispensary selection..

The selection committee of RMD Application Committee Roster docx format of RMD Application Committee Roster evaluated Phase 2 applications based on such factors as appropriateness of the site, geographical distribution of dispensaries, local support, and the applicant?s ability to meet the overall health needs of registered patients while ensuring public safety.

Phase 2 applicants were asked to demonstrate local support during the Department?s review process, and show that they can comply with all municipal rules, regulations, ordinances and bylaws. The Department is also developing a database to track patient and physician registrations, which will be available to law enforcement.

The voter-approved law allows the Department to register up to 35 non-profit Registered Marijuana Dispensaries across the state, with at least one but no more than five dispensaries per county.

Since the law took effect January 1, 2013, the Department has enjoyed significant public involvement through listening sessions and public hearings. DPH enacted regulations that have been called a model for other states to follow, and the Department has advanced the competitive dispensary application process on an aggressive timeline to ensure patient access

Medical Cannabis Dispensaries Infomation

People often talk about medical marijuana being "prescribed" and "dispensed." However, those terms are not contained in the law itself.

Marijuana remains a Schedule I controlled substance under federal and state law, meaning doctors cannot write prescriptions for it and pharmacies cannot stock or dispense it. In Montana, doctors instead provide "written certification" that:

  • a person has a "debilitating medical condition" that is listed in the Montana Medical Marijuana Act;
  • the potential benefits of the medical use of marijuana are likely to outweigh the health risks of using the marijuana.

Likewise, marijuana is not "dispensed." However, individuals who are designated as "caregivers" may grow marijuana and provide it to patients who have specifically chosen the person to act as their caregiver. The role of the caregiver varies. Some provide medical marijuana to only one patient, while others have created businesses and supply medical marijuana to a relatively large number of patients.

Montana also does not have "dispensaries" as some medical marijuana states do. Dispensaries may sell marijuana to any registered medical marijuana user. There is no direct patient-provider relationship in those states, as there is in Montana

Medical Marijuana - Dispensaries

The Medical Marijuana Program will make medical marijuana accessible to patients with conditions including cancer, HIV/AIDS, Lou Gehrig's disease (ALS), Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, damage to the nervous tissue of the spinal cord with objective neurological indication of intractable spasticity, epilepsy, inflammatory bowel disease, neuropathies and Huntington's disease. The law includes these conditions when there is a clinical association with or complication of the condition resulting in cachexia or wasting syndrome, severe or chronic pain, severe nausea, seizures; or severe or persistent muscle spasms. Acting State Health Commissioner Dr. Howard Zucker is also exploring mechanisms that may accelerate access to medical marijuana for children suffering from epilepsy. The Health Commissioner may expand the list of eligible conditions for which medical marijuana certifications may be issued by practitioners.

Under the program, practitioners will be required to complete a training course and register with DOH to issue certifications to their patients for medical marijuana. Practitioners must certify that their patients have a serious condition and the patients are likely to receive therapeutic or palliative benefits from the use of medical marijuana for the serious condition in order to issue the certification. This process will ensure that medical marijuana is available only to patients with serious conditions who will benefit from the treatment.

DOH will issue certified patients a Registry Identification Card. Certified patients must apply to DOH for a registry identification card. Certified patients may designate a caregiver, who must also apply to DOH for a registry identification card. The card will contain the practitioner's dosing recommendations for the patient. DOH will be able to suspend or revoke the card of a patient who willfully violates any provision of the law.

Organizations that wish to manufacture and dispense medical marijuana must apply to DOH for registration as a registered organization and, if approved, conform to specific requirements. Registration will be valid for two years at a time, will be renewable, and will be subject to revocation. Registered organizations will be required to comply with strict security and record-keeping requirements. The law allows for up to five registered organizations, located in New York State, to grow, manufacture, distribute and dispense marijuana for medical use. Each registered organization may operate up to four dispensing facilities statewide, for up to an initial total of 20 geographically-dispersed dispensing facilities.

Only medical marijuana dosage forms approved by DOH will be permissible for use. Registered organizations must contract with an independent laboratory located in New York State to test the medical marijuana products. Registered organizations will be able to dispense up to a 30-day supply of medical marijuana to certified patients with a valid registry identification card. Patients may only possess up to a 30-day supply of medical marijuana. The medical marijuana will be dispensed in a sealed and properly labeled package, with a safety insert included. Patients must keep the medical marijuana in the original packaging in which it was dispensed.

The proposed regulations for the State's medical marijuana program can be accessed from the link below. Once the proposed regulations are adopted, DOH will then be able to accept applications from potential patients, practitioners, or manufacturers. Please continue to monitor the Department's web page for updates.

Your application will be reviewed according to the rules governing the registration of medical marijuana dispensaries. If your application meets the initial criteria, you will have 60 calendar days to reach full compliance with Dispensary Program requirements as outlined in OAR 333-008-1040(5). Once your dispensary is fully compliant, you must submit a Readiness Form to attest that you are ready for an assessment performed by the Dispensary Program. Failure to submit the Readiness Form within the timeframe will result in the application being returned as incomplete.

Upon receipt of the Readiness Form, the Dispensary Program will perform a site visit within 30 calendar days to determine compliance. If the facility is in compliance, you will receive notification that your dispensary is approved. A registration certificate, which must be displayed within the dispensary before you can begin to operate, will be given when the facility is ready to open.

If the facility is NOT in compliance, the Dispensary Program may:
  • Give 10 business days for the dispensary to come into compliance;
  • Propose to deny the registration; or
  • Consider the application to be incomplete.

If your application is not approved, $3,500 of your credit card payment will be refunded to the card and you will receive a letter explaining the reason(s) why your application was not approved.

Scale Industry Complaints on the Rise over False Advertising and Counterfeit Imported Scales

NCWM reports that business owners shopping for commercial scales on the internet are increasingly at risk of being duped by false claims of NTEP certification for scales and scale components, a requirement for most states. Accusations by scale dealers of counterfeit imports are also on the rise.

Internet shoppers should be leery of low-priced scales advertised on sites such as eBay or Amazon as ?legal for trade,? or NTEP Certified according to the National Conference on Weights and Measures (NCWM). NCWM has seen a drastic increase in false or deceptive advertising of scales and scale components as ?legal for trade? or ?NTEP Certified.? Lately, accusations have even pointed toward counterfeit devices; cheap and inferior copies of the real thing. NTEP is the National Type Evaluation Program administered by NCWM. Most states require NTEP certification for scales used for buying and selling commodities. The certification demonstrates that the scale is designed to meet national standards of design, performance, and durability before it is introduced into the marketplace.

?The complaints have definitely increased, especially with regard to internet advertising,? said Don Onwiler, NCWM Executive Director. It used to be simple misplacement of the NTEP logo, but now Onwiler says the complaints are turning toward counterfeit devices that are being imported to the U.S. and sold on the internet. ?These are cheap imitations of the real thing, sort of like buying a fake Rolex for $20 on a street corner,? said Onwiler. The fake versions would not stand up to design, accuracy and durability standards for commercial use. Underwriters Laboratories reports that counterfeit imports are a very real concern. UL established an anticounterfeiting operations department over 20 years ago, but they are seeing an expansion from low priced, low tech consumer products. Robert Crane, US Customs Program Manager for UL said, ?Over the past several years we are now seeing more and more examples of higher expense, greater complexity and a myriad of product types being counterfeited, such as products in the audio/video categories and even medical and dental devices.? Crane added that when it comes to electrical products, 97% of the counterfeit items are coming from China.

NTEP certification means additional expense for the scale manufacturer but the scale industry has been a strong proponent
