- Recommendations must come from Montana-licensed physicians (MD or DO).
- Qualifying conditions include cancer, HIV/AIDS, glaucoma, epilepsy, Crohn’s disease, PTSD, severe chronic pain, cachexia, intractable nausea or vomiting, painful peripheral neuropathy, muscle spasms from central nervous system disorders, and hospice care admission.
