Health care facilities accommodation of cannabis and hemp products requirement provision
This bill requires Minnesota health care facilities (like hospitals, assisted living centers, and hospices) to accommodate patients using medical cannabis and specific hemp products under state law. Facilities may set reasonable rules - such as requiring patients to store products in locked containers or restricting use to designated areas - but cannot unreasonably limit access or prohibit use solely because cannabis is federally illegal. The law also clarifies that facilities must allow use authorized by state medical cannabis programs and cannot deny care based on federal drug status. If federal agencies take enforcement action against facilities for cannabis use, they may temporarily pause accommodations until federal guidance changes.
