This may be a good service for them who don't have the will to look around for a doctor. It would make things convenient for some, like myself, who get medical care from the VA.

On the other hand, all this can be done by the individual. I found a non-VA doctor to write my rec., and it wasn't much trouble finding.

I see services like this and am glad the entrepreneurial sprite is alive and well. Then I think, people can do it themselves.

If they make laws about having a relationship with the doctor because of it, it could hurt people like veterans.

Yay San Juan County!

It seems to me like you have a good thing going here. Once upon a time in America it wasn't a crime to make money. If I needed a pain doc I'd much rather pay to go a Canna friendly one once or twice rather than to 3 or 4 that won't hear it.

Yeah we don't need any card mills either. I think if a patient has sufficient records and qualifies,why not?

Get a psychiatrist to sign on.

[nmgreenlight]

A psychiatrist is not necessary. All that is required by the state is for a psychiatrist to diagnose the psychiatric condition that qualifies the patient. Our doctor will review those records and write the recommendation if the patient was properly diagnosed by a psychiatrist with a qualifying condition.

Our neurologist will be able to review any patient records that qualify under chronic pain and write the recommendation if he deems they qualify.

As far as the idea of "Card Mills" We have seen the damage such enterprises caused in Colorado and we want no part in these things. We have many safeguards in place to prevent scammers from manipulating the system. Our reputation and the reputation of these doctors are on the line and we will do everything we can to protect them.

We have already discussed with the State about many patients coming from the same doctor, and they told us that it was completly understandable since their biggest complaint is that doctors in the state of New Mexico refuse to sign. Our Doctors are also constantly in communication with the State discussing patients on an individual basis.

Does anyone know what the process is like for license renewals? I know it requires the form and Dr.'s signature, but does one have to go see the Dr. again? Do doctors charge the same fee for renewal as the initial referral? Also, what does NM Greenlight charge for an initial exam or license renewal? I paid $140 for my initial exam. Thanks

Alot of MD.'s are still too afraid to walk out on that limb, Thats a fact. So the individual that truley needs this medication, and, is faced with a "lost cuase MD." what do they do and whom do they turn too? I did not know that many "reasonable doctors" and they are still in short supply.
I have dealt with many whom still see this as a "refer madness" thing and some MD.'s truley want to help but are afraid of loosing a 30 year practice. Big pickle for someone just trying help and for someone just trying to ease some life threatning isusse or specific ailments.
NM. Greenlight has helped me register and get my paper work filled and filed the doctor (whom is my family doc anyway) is a great man, super knowledgable and all about helping his patience recieve the individual care they need. This is not a man who would just run you thru. There are very strict guidlines to becoming a mmj patient in N.M. and they can not just hand out cards. If you don't met the requirments you don't get it.
I thank you NMgreenlight and believe ,without a doubt, you are doing a great thing for those of us whom can't really do this alone.

License renewals require a Dr's signature, same as new applicant. The Dr. will have to review your records and make sure that you still qualify for the program. I am unaware what other Dr's charge for their services for this. When a patient comes through our service, the initial fee is 200.00, if they renew with us again, we charge 100.00. NM Green Light.

[MrKenpachi]

sounds interesting. what about PTSD?

[nmgreenlight]

PTSD is a qualifying condition under New Mexico Law, you will need a copy of your diagnoses from your phychiatrist and the signature of a Dr, who will confirm. NM Green Light

You are $50 more expencive than the doctor I talked to. The one I talked to charges $150, and is willing to work with people who are short of money.

(Sorry, I am not allowed to post or give out their address or phone number. They are worried they will get a flood of people and that it may disrupt their business.)

Anyway, why are you charging $200? What are you willing to do to help people who are poor?
