An Act relative to cannabis for Medicare eligible patients

This bill allows Massachusetts health insurance plans to cover medical cannabis for patients aged 65 and older, provided the cannabis is listed on state drug schedules II through VI. It requires health plans to reimburse doctors who certify these patients for medical cannabis use under Massachusetts law. The bill directly affects seniors (65+) using medical cannabis and the state-regulated health insurance plans that cover them. It updates insurance coverage rules to align with Massachusetts' medical cannabis program without changing federal cannabis laws.
