North America’s Largest Multi-State Medical Cannabis Evaluation and Education Center Group Responds to Orono Police Raid
BANGOR, Maine, Nov. 05, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Canna Care Docs, a CB2 Insights company and the largest and longest-running multi-state medical cannabis evaluation and education center group is calling on patients in Orono, Maine and the state at-large to seek out medical evaluations and educational support through channels that meet the regulations of the state. This follows a large-scale police raid of an illegal operation offering prospective patients in Maine with an illegitimate process of integrating cannabis into their treatment plans.
Canna Care Docs notes that patients should be cautious of the following signs of unlawful cannabis businesses throughout the state:
- Medical documentation and cards accepted by the state cannot be in electronic form – instead must be hard copies created by a certified healthcare provider;
- Telemedicine appointments must be conducted within a HIPAA-compliant, secure portal and not in open forums such as Google Hangouts; and
- Practitioners or clinics must not provide a promise of access to medicine prior to an evaluation.
“To-date, we have provided evaluations and care to over 250,000 patients and take our work within the healthcare industry very seriously,” said Stephanie Gluchacki, President of Clinical Operations, Canna Care Docs. “Mainers deserve comprehensive and compliant care when they are seeking alternate treatment options for chronic pain, glaucoma, cancer-related symptoms, multiple sclerosis, seizures, or a host of other ailments. At Canna Care Docs, we are committed to assessing the viability of cannabis as a treatment option and ensuring that patients receive the appropriate documentation and education according to the State’s regulations.”
Since 2014, Canna Care Docs has expanded to assist patients in Massachusetts, Maryland, Maine, Connecticut, Delaware, Rhode Island, Illinois and New York. In Maine, Canna Care Docs has physical locations in Bangor, Biddeford and Winthrop and is also able to see patients through HIPAA-compliant telemedicine appointments throughout the state.
