Cannabis covered by insurance? - Mikka - 12-12-2017
I apologize if this has ever been covered before but... My husband just got approved
for medical cannabis for 3 ailments he has here in the Midwest. He's very excited
hoping he can finally have relief after many years of no meds ever helping him.
My question.. since it's medically mandated for his issues it's legal in our state, would
health insurance we have be obligated to cover the cost of the cannabis? Has anyone
had any experience with this?
Thank you ahead of time !

Ah, ok, that makes sense... I was afraid that would be the answer. Argh!
Thank you, FirePlaces !!
