For them to shut it down by that time would in my opinion show little progress of telemedicine. If it does shutdown then the reality is lost

I believe they should continue Telemedicine in PA especially since it's very useful for those of us who don't have transportation or any way to get transportation. Plus it's much safer health wise because when you go into a doctor's office you're exposed to other people and what ever they're there for whatever sickness they have and it makes it easy for germs and virus' to spread in a public forum. With Telemedicine you're in your own home and safe.

It is hard getting out drs when you are in this much pain. With today's communications it is a safe and convenient way to keep healthy.

Telemedicine has been a lifesaver for my mental health during this pandemic. As we open back up its nice to not feel the pressure of having to go to an office for my care.

Telemedicine has proven itself to be a cost effective solution for many people. You may be denying life saving advice to someone who can’t get to the dr.

There is simply no reason to discontinue telemedicine... that I can think of, it is extremely beneficial for so many people, single moms, full-time workers, people who are unable to leave their home without help, etc...

I agree that having telemedicine for medical marijuana certification/recertification is imperative to continue with. It saves patients a great deal of money and it is quite efficient. I am 100% in favor of signing this petition.

I received my medical marijuana card in January of 2021 and I can't begin to tell you what a difference it has made in my life I no longer take half the pills then I was taking before it helps me with my anxiety and pain and if it weren't for me doing it over the phone I will probably still be waiting for the paperwork to be approved. Therefore I support this petition 100% Joe Miller

It is imperative that we have telemedicine appointments because many of us can not access doctors in person for numerous reasons.

As a person with anxiety it is a lot less nerve racking to be able to just see a doctor over video phone!

People desperately need this. Suicide rates have decreased due to marijuana use even despite the pandemic keeping people locked in our homes due to marijuana.
