Medical marijuana is becoming a more popular treatment option for patients with various medical complications. To prescribe medical marijuana as a treatment option, clinicians are often required to earn a specific amount of medical marijuana CME credits based on the state they practice. While every state does not currently have specific medical marijuana CME requirements, the number of states with specific requirements is expected to grow as more states look into legalizing the use of medical marijuana.
