October 18, 2018
On October 16, 2018, the Department of Health made a decision on a petition they received in April to add Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) as a qualified medical condition to participate in Rhode Island's Medical Marijuana Program. There are specific requirements that the patient must fall under to qualify and the Practitioner must follow a specific protocol before approving medical marijuana. Attached is the letter with more details from the DOH.
