South Dakota's Department of Health must now submit an annual report to the legislature by March 1st documenting the medical cannabis program's financial activity, public health impacts, and detailed usage statistics. The report will track metrics like the number of patient applications, cannabis-related poisonings and hospitalizations, drug deaths involving cannabis, licensing violations, and demographic information about registered patients and healthcare providers involved in the program. This creates a new accountability requirement to monitor how the medical cannabis program affects public safety, health, and behavioral health services in the state.
