South Dakota's medical cannabis program now requires doctors to be notified when their patients receive a cannabis certification, ensuring their primary or referring physician stays informed about this treatment. The bill makes updates to the cannabis certification process and removes some outdated provisions from state law related to an earlier cannabis program framework. This change helps coordinate patient care between cannabis providers and a patient's regular medical team.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
