Started during the pandemic, tele-health visits for medical marijuana patients will continue in N.J.
New Jersey’s more than 112,000 medical marijuana patients can continue seeing their physicians virtually or by phone to maintain their enrollment in the state’s program, thanks to a new law signed by Gov. Phil Murphy on Thursday.
Murphy conditionally vetoed the bill in April and asked lawmakers to broaden it. Initially, it would have allowed the most vulnerable patients to seek authorization for medical marijuana using tele-health appointments.
