There are simply NOT enough producers to meet the demand. Patients should not be required to register with ALL the producers just to be assured of obtaining meds consistently. Not only that, but ALL the producers carry different strains so if your favorite producer is out of the strain you desire, then what? The DOH has failed to approve producers in a fair consistent manner. There are multiple pending lawsuits and legal action against the DOH, challenging the practices and procedures currently being used to review the LNPP apps. Unless you happen to be a producer (or on the BOD of a producer) the DOH puts most everyone else on the back burner. They are EXPERTS at keeping all LNPP applicants in a cloud of confusion. Not knowing where they stand in the process is wrong. Stringing them along is wrong. I see alot of room for improvement in many areas. the most obvious is meeting the demand of the patients and this is NOT being accomplished. Sadly, a bunch of red tape and politics has been getting in the way of real progress and apparently there is no end in sight.....
