The Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Authority has outlined changes to the program they say are necessary because of statutory modifications made during the 2019 legislative session. The Authority said the changes will be implemented to meet the major elements of HB 2612 and "trailer bills" that affect OMMA, a news release states.
The changes affect the application process, residency requirements, physician requirements, tracking and testing rules and product disposal. They also add five new license categories: transporter, transporter agent, testing laboratory, education facility and short-term patient licenses.
OMMA said the rule changes will be implemented over the next few months. They say there will be a public comment period, but the time for that is not specified in the release.

There are numerous other changes that will affect medical marijuana businesses and patients. The Authority has given timelines for implementation but said unforeseen circumstances could cause changes in that schedule.
