AI Summary

This bill establishes a new registration process for medical cannabis patients who are visiting Minnesota, allowing them to temporarily participate in the state's medical cannabis registry program. The bill creates an alternative certification procedure where visiting patients can enroll by submitting documentation from their home state, such as their medical cannabis registration or license, which must include verification of their patient status and residency. Once approved, visiting patients will have the same rights and privileges as Minnesota-based medical cannabis patients. The bill modifies existing statutes to specify that visiting patients must maintain their patient certification in their home state and report any changes to that certification. The enrollment period for visiting patients will be valid until the expiration of their home state's medical cannabis certification. The bill also updates the conditions for continued enrollment and the process for approving or denying registry applications, ensuring that visiting patients can access medical cannabis while maintaining the integrity of the state's medical cannabis program.
