Your parents are on the program here....I am happy to hear that. However, them sharing producer information with you is a breach of the rules and regulations of the program. Unless you are a NM resident you do not qualify to be a caregiver on the program and should not have any of the information.
As a legal resident owning property in Santa Fe, as I mentioned before, and maintaining utilities I am a legal resident and you did not ask if I was a caregiver, which I am. I tell you what, you are very quick to judge, without asking before assuming. That is the problem with most of the internet, everyone assumes their situation is the Only situation. Besides, how is there a breach of rules if the producer has a dot com for the public and is registered on multiple domains under such name? Seriously, you need to think before you speak. I appreciate your effort though.

As far as pricing, the older producers have already lowered prices and I expect the rest will follow suit once things are operating more smoothly. Unfortunately, pricing is what leads to diversion. Patients purchase @ $8/gr and resell it @ street prices.
To be honest I have only purchased ALB/SF product for my parents, so I was out of line by not having product from the Southern part of the state. :hippy: I was basing my position on the info from the patients I know and consult. Diversion is why MM is even a business, LEGAL drug dealing. Patients I know that need the medication use WAY less than the alotted amount and really can not afford the price. SO they have to resort to traditional methods of acquisition. I wish the VA would cover it, but they won't. The ones I know that need it are to afraid to even think about selling, so there are 2 kinds of people using this MM....the good and the bad. Sucks, but it is what it is.

And after 2 years of being licensed, they have yet to take barely any time off let alone any "lavish" vacations. None of which are paid for by the LNPP. Many seem to forget that a resonable compensation is allowed to be paid and that ALL of the producers have uncompensated patients on their boards.
Granted, but reasonable compensation is really a GRAY area and when you make profit you find ways to go back into the red. Anyone that has run a business knows this, even if it is not a non profit. You make it sound like they are a CHARITY, they are far from that. They have to pay light bills and I know they ALL have under the table work, don't fool yourself. I am just voicing the other side of the river, there is always more than one perspective and I have mine, you have your's. :smokin:

100% of this conversation was based on opinion, so there is not much fact to get straight. Criticism is a direct result of difference of opinion...you are right in your mind and I am in mine, that does not mean either of us are right. Freedom of speech is awesome, glad we can converse and get perspective out for the masses to read.:hippy:
