The bill amends existing laws regarding medical marijuana licenses in Oklahoma, specifically focusing on the identification numbers and the establishment of a medical marijuana use registry. It modifies the identification number format from a twenty-four-character to a twelve-character identifier and introduces a PDF417 barcode for verification purposes. The bill also outlines the responsibilities of the Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Authority, including the creation of a registry accessible to licensed dispensaries and courts, while ensuring that all records remain confidential and comply with privacy laws.
Additionally, the bill establishes provisions for various types of medical marijuana patient licenses, including short-term and temporary licenses for out-of-state residents. It sets application fees, requirements for caregivers, and the process for approving or denying applications. The act will take effect on November 1, 2025, and will apply to any new or replacement medical marijuana patient licenses issued after that date.
