GregS, we have developed our own version of this form that documents the unique nature of the doctor patient relationship in regards to medical marijuana certifications. This should be a standard document at all doctors offices where certifications are signed. It is a unique relationship and...

To the doctor on this thread: I did not mention you personally or professionally in any post. I will never and have never. If you feel the need to document your professional behavior for the world to see, I can't stop you from doing so. You insist of referring to our medical center by name...

I would ask again, what do people think of a doctor delegating authority to a nurse to certify their patients? Would you feel comfortable with this? Is there proper informed consent for a patient who thinks that they are seeing an actual doctor but instead are seeing a nurse? Would this hold...

GregS, I am suggesting that another practice uses a nurse to certify patients. We would NEVER do that. This telemed question is loaded on one side. Perhaps I am expecting a different level of sophistication here. It is not forbidden. I can't believe that I have to explain this again. If it...

Perhaps there are other threads that you would enjoy more, Freebloody.

Here is another question I would like answered by anyone: How would you feel about a doctor delegating authority to their nurse to certify you? What if you went to a certification center, saw a nurse when you thought you were seeing a doctor and received your certification that way? What do...

I know I have said that I do not want to participate in this thread, but when people call out my integrity, I have to respond. Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, has done more than the staff of our medical center to stand up for the rights of patients. We are there full time for our patients for...

Greg S, sorry to hear about your wife. Also, thank you for making the distinction between slander and libel. I am not going to be baited here into discussing the issue of telemedicine. The law stands on its own, and creating divisiveness over this issue only hurts patients. There are a lot...

I am not going to dignify your comments with any further responses. Go cause trouble somewhere else.

The bills, which I notice nobody ever quotes, state that all that is required is an interactive, real-time, audio, video or both beginning with the first visit. People can believe whatever they want. As long as a patient has a doctor who is willing to stand up for them, medically, legally or...

Unfortunately, this industry is so full of shady stuff that it gets a bit overwhelming sometimes. As a newly minted social worker, I probably could not have chosen a more challenging industry to start out in. There are so many things that chap me just about every day in this industry. For...

I was honest from the get go. I have been certified there for the past 3 years. Yes, in the past year and a half I have worked there. No, I don't expect ResinExtractor to be chiming in any time soon on this thread. It was pure fiction from the start.

StowandGrow, yes, I know exactly what goes on there. No meds, high standard doctors and always looking out for patients in all cases. If anybody wants to inform themselves about use of telemedicine, they can do the research themselves or they can simply refer to my old post for the bills. So...

Stowandgrow, setting propaganda straight is not threatening. Slander is slander. I don't like it in any form. Doctor's certifications are literally the foundation that all legal defenses arise from. This thread is a fantastic opportunity to discuss the policies that surround and guide...

There are still certification centers in Michigan who continue to use "internet medicine" for certifications. Sad but true.

Also, it is not wise to slander doctors either. They can defend themselves too.

Also, Resin Extractor, you may want to brush up on the laws in Michigan. There were two laws signed by Gov. Snyder in 2012 that allowed for the use of telemedicine during the initial visit. Since it is not specifically mentioned in the new language added to the MMMA, it is not barred from use...

Resin Extractor, I would advise that you do not use a business by name when you are slandering them. I have been to Chronic Cert Center for the past 3 years, and I can say that your description is way off base. Since you have so much money to burn, I would advise that you do not slander CCC as...
