MS Medical Cannabis Telehealth visits NOW available for Homebound Patients

Homebound patients:

  • Patients between 18-25 years old typically require certification from two practitioners from separate practices; however, this is waived for homebound individuals.

  • Mississippi allows for certifications for homebound patients to be issued following a telemedicine assessment. This means the initial in-person visit requirement can be bypassed for homebound individuals.

Caregiver for homebound patients:

  • A homebound patient may designate a caregiver to assist them, especially if they are unable to visit a dispensary.

  • Caregivers must be at least 21 years old (unless the patient's parent or guardian), registered with the state, and cannot have certain felony convictions.

  • If a patient requires more than one caregiver due to age or condition, documentation must be provided.

  • Caregivers may purchase, acquire, possess, deliver, prepare, and administer medical cannabis to the patient, but cannot consume or sell it.

  • Licensed medical cannabis dispensaries are authorized to deliver medical cannabis directly to nursing homes, hospitals, and other care facilities for homebound patients.
