Since the legal sale of medical marijuana began in January 2019, The Drug Enforcement and Policy Center at The Ohio State University Moritz College of Law has distributed an annual survey regarding the Medical Marijuana Control Program (MMCP). As Ohio enters another year of medical marijuana sales, they are again distributing a survey to active and prospective medical marijuana patients, in an effort to assess their experiences and satisfaction with the MMCP to date. If you are interested in participating, you may share your insights by taking this survey, which will take approximately 5-10 minutes to complete.
Please note this survey is conducted by The Ohio State University Drug Enforcement and Policy Center and is not affiliated with the MMCP or the Division of Cannabis Control.
Medical Marijuana Control Program
Individuals using or considering using cannabis are encouraged to consult with a physician, and Medical Marijuana Control Program (MMCP) patients are encouraged to remain within the MMCP. Doing so ensures the patient is speaking with a physician about their qualifying condition and maintains access to medical marijuana at operational marijuana dispensaries. Furthermore, active MMCP patients are provided with access to medical marijuana specific discounts that may be offered at dispensaries as well as being exempt from the 10% excise tax levied on non-medical sales per the approved statute.
It is important to note employers have discretion to establish their own drug-free workplace policies. Some individual employers have chosen to take the status of an employee as a medical marijuana patient into consideration. Similar considerations have been given for individuals under court supervision who are medical marijuana patients.
