Understanding Governor Beshear's Executive Order

Until dispensaries are open and accessible to cardholders across the state, an Executive Order signed by Governor Andy Beshear on November 15, 2022 provides a conditional pardon for the possession of medical cannabis. This means you may not be charged with a crime if you meet all of the following requirements:

1. The medical cannabis must be legally purchased in another U.S. jurisdiction (e.g. a neighboring state where it is legal).
2. You must have a receipt or proof of purchase showing the date and location of the purchase.
3. The amount you possess must not exceed eight (8) ounces.
4. You must have a written certification from a licensed healthcare provider stating you have been diagnosed with a qualifying medical condition.

Important: Federal Law Disclaimer
Please be advised that transporting any cannabis product across state lines is a federal offense. While Executive Order 2022-798 provides a conditional pardon at the state level, it does not provide immunity from federal law or prosecution. The act of crossing a state border with cannabis remains federally illegal.

You have several options for obtaining a copy of your medical records to bring to your appointment.

• Contact Your Doctor's Office Directly: The simplest way is to call or message your current physician's office and request that they send your records to our clinic.
• Use a Patient Portal: If your doctor's office uses a patient portal, you can often access and download your medical history, current medication list, and recent test results yourself. Simply log into your portal, download the relevant documents, print them, and bring them with you.
