How to access medicinal cannabis in Australia?
Screening of suitability
A 15 minute call with our allied health professionals to assess your suitability for medicinal cannabis. If suitable, a patient is asked to send in a Referral and Health Summary to begin their chronic care journey. Note: DVA patients require a letter from their treating specialist.
Initial Consultation
Once we have received a patient’s referral and medical history, CA Clinics’ medicinal cannabis doctor deep dives into the patient’s case. The doctor also uses this time to assess medical cannabis treatment options that could come in the form of TGA authorised THC and/or CBD oils, compounds or vaporisers.
Post-Approval Consultation
After the Initial Consultation, our medical cannabis team applies for a TGA approval to accompany the doctor’s script. The CA Clinics doctor then briefs the patient on what to expect of their care and medication plan.
Ongoing Monitoring
Regular monitoring consultations follow a patient’s progress of their medicinal cannabis treatments with referring doctors kept in the loop.
