With continuous efforts by independent labs and promising non- federal government clinical studies, more states are reevaluating current laws on

Medical Cannabis. Maryland just recently completed its application phase1 stage of Maryland Medical Cannabis Commission (MMCC) program. While all applicants wait to know their fate, come January, 2016. for selection result

going into phase2 operational stage. With no clarity from the Feds regarding schedule 1 classification of cannabis. It does however give some hope to have a democratic party frontrunner, Hillary Clinton, make such a

progressive comment about reclassification of Cannabis by also highlighting: “Researchers at universities, at the National Institutes of

Health, could start researching what’s the best way to use it, how much dose does somebody need, how does it interact with other medications.”

Good thing 23 States in the US are already up and running with it. A more recent one is a statement by LeafLine Labs CEO Manny Munson-Regala who said: "States with medical cannabis laws have lower annual opioid overdose

deaths than states without such laws."

US spend close to 18% of its GDP on healthcare mostly generated from patients with a single

chronic disease, or multiple chronic conditions.

In relative to other develop world Healthcare spending, yes it is a concern as

well as an “opportunity” for innovation!

“System’s design” For these particular group of patient represented by 20% of all patients in the United States. And those 20% of patients, the ones with chronic conditions, incur 80% of all healthcare costs which happens to

be an interesting example of the 80-20 rule. 6

Is someone missing in this scenario as it relates to cannabis patient?

According to MMCC definition, Caregivers have important role when it comes to administration of

the recommended cannabis products, however, they left it up for grabs for whosoever sees the

opportunity to grab it.
