How to Add Additional Qualifying Conditions to the Ohio List:
To add additional qualifying conditions to the Ohio list, you would need to follow the state’s legal process for changing its medical marijuana program regulations. This involves submitting a proposal to the Ohio Medical Marijuana Control Program (OMMCP), which oversees the state’s medical cannabis program.
The proposal should include evidence supporting the addition of the new qualifying condition, such as research studies or medical literature. The proposal should also explain how the proposed condition meets the state’s requirements for medical cannabis use
After submitting the proposal, the OMMCP will review it and may seek additional information or clarification. If the proposal is approved, the OMMCP will update the state’s list of qualifying conditions to include the new condition. The process can take several months or longer.
