ARTICLE 51. COMPASSIONATE USE OF LOW DOSE THC.


§16-51-1. Legislative findings.

            The purpose of this article is to legalize the use of cannabis-based pharmaceutical products that in the medical judgment of an attending physician, is an appropriate medical treatment for a person diagnosed with cancer or a disease, disorder or condition in which use of the cannabis based pharmaceutical product alleviates symptoms such as seizures, severe and persistent muscle spasm, and no other satisfactory alternative treatment option exists for the patient.


§16-51-2. Definitions.

As used in this article, the term:

(a) “Dispensing organization” means an organization approved by the department to dispense low-THC cannabis pursuant to this article;

(b) “Low-THC cannabis” means a plant of the genus Cannabis, the dried flowers of which contain 0.8 percent or less of tetrahydrocannabinol and more than 10 percent of cannabidiol weight for weight; the seeds thereof; the resin extracted from any part of such plant; or any compound, manufacture, salt, derivative, mixture, or preparation of such plant or its seeds or resin that is dispensed only from a dispensing organization;

(c) “Medical use” means administration of the ordered amount of low-THC cannabis. The term does not include the possession, use, or administration by smoking. The term also does not include the transfer of low-THC cannabis to a person other than the patient for whom it was ordered or the patient’s legal representative on behalf of the qualified patient;

(d) “Smoking” means burning or igniting a substance and inhaling the smoke. Smoking does not include the use of a vaporizer.


§16-51-3. Physician prescription authority.

A physician licensed under article three or fourteen, chapter thirty of this code who has examined and is treating a patient suffering from cancer or a physical medical condition that chronically produces symptoms such as seizures or severe and persistent muscle spasms may order for the patient’s medical use low-THC cannabis to treat such disease, disorder, or condition or to alleviate symptoms of such disease, disorder, or condition, if no other satisfactory alternative treatment options exist for that patient and all of the following conditions apply:

(1) The patient is a permanent resident of this state;

(2) The physician determines that the risks of ordering low-THC cannabis are reasonable in light of the potential benefit for that patient. If a patient is younger than eighteen years of age, a second physician must concur with this determination, and such determination must be documented in the patient’s medical record;

(3) The physician maintains a patient treatment plan that includes the dose, route of administration, planned duration, and monitoring of the patient’s symptoms and other indicators of tolerance or reaction to the low-THC cannabis;

(4) The physician obtains the voluntary informed consent of the patient or the patient’s legal guardian to treatment with low-THC cannabis after sufficiently explaining the current state of knowledge in the medical community of the effectiveness of treatment of the patient’s condition with low-THC cannabis, the medically acceptable alternatives, and the potential risks and side effects; and

(5) The physician complies with any additional conditions or directives that are established by his or her licensing board or the secretary of the Department of Health and Human Resources.


§16-51-4.  Duties of the Secretary.

The secretary of the Department of Health and Human Resources shall propose rules for legislative approval in accordance with the provisions of article three, chapter twenty-nine(a) of this code, necessary to effectuate the provisions of this article, including but not limited to:

(1)  Establish any limitations, conditions or requirements on the dispensing of low-THC cannabis necessary to protect public health and prevent diversion of it for any unlawful purpose; and

(2) Authorizing and regulating dispensing organizations to ensure reasonable statewide accessibility and availability as necessary for patients that have been prescribed low-THC cannabis pursuant to this article.
