About the Course

People have been using cannabis medicinally for thousands of years. It has only been in the last 120 years that cannabis use has been demonized. People are wanting to go back to more natural ways to treat their ailments. This is why medical cannabis has become extremely popular all over the United States over the past 20 years.

Medical cannabis is a great niche service that a nurse practitioner can utilize to create a successful side practice. This course is designed for the nurse practitioner who is interested in starting a high revenue, low expense, and low liability niche side practice.

Even though states are enacting recreational cannabis laws, medical cannabis continues to grow for 2 reasons:

1. Patients are fed up with pharmaceuticals and want an effective alternative treatment option.
2. It is a 6-billion-dollar industry!

What does this mean for the astute nurse practitioner entrepreneur? HIGH PROFIT POTENTIAL.

Medical cannabis will continue to gain traction as the medical benefits of the 113 known cannabinoids and dozens of terpenes are discovered. I am excited with what the future holds surrounding this unique plant!

This course is designed to teach a nurse practitioner who has absolutely no experience with medical cannabis on how to open and practice this niche service. This course will provide you EVERYTHING you need to start a successful medical cannabis clinic. I have spent years building a successful medical cannabis clinic, I am now sharing what I have learned to my nurse practitioner colleagues.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a specialized license to perform medical cannabis evaluations?

It depends on the state you want to practice in! Most states do not require a specialized license to perform medical cannabis evaluations. Some states, like New York, do require a certification. This is why it is important you know the medical cannabis act of your state like the back of your hand!

Should I be worried about my DEA license or that cannabis is still considered a schedule 1 drug?

NO! A medical provider who recommends cannabis to a patient is not breaking the law! It is your first amendment right to recommend whatever you want with a patient. The legal case Conant v. Walters affirmed the right of a medical provider to recommend medical cannabis to a patient! There is nothing to be worried about as long as you follow state law.

Can I open a telemedicine medical cannabis clinic?

Some states like Maryland allow medical cannabis evaluations to be performed via telemedicine. Most states do require an in-person encounter though. Regardless of this barrier, you can still open a medical cannabis clinic utilizing telemedicine platforms that provide guidance, dosage recommendations, medical management, etc. via telemedicine, you just cannot perform the actual evaluation that gives the patient a medical cannabis card.

Is medical cannabis still viable with more and more states going recreational?

Absolutely! Patients enjoy the benefits that a medical cannabis card provides. Many states do not tax medical cannabis like recreational cannabis. Medical cannabis card holders can also possess more cannabis products and can use products with a higher THC content. There will always be a need for medical cannabis even if it goes recreational at a national level!

Tashica B.: Justin and the Elite NP community goes above and beyond to empower NPs! The courses, the feedback, the actionable steps/info to start a business is immeasurable! So happy I came across this forum and super excited about what I will accomplish as a result of it! So appreciative for all the useful information!

Dee D.: I have purchased many education courses from the Elite Nurse Practitioner. Because of his courses, I’m now working part time, and growing a niche side clinic. His ongoing shots of wisdom and encouragement are effective and, when needed, he provides a “kick in the ass”. He stays with you and doesn’t teach you and then drop you. He also knows and appreciates the value of a hard working Nurse Practitioner and is fantastic at communicating that value. It doesn’t take long before you begin to realize that the only thing holding you back is that you bought into the idea that being a slave to corporate run healthcare is the only way to function meaningfully as an NP, to have financial security, and to be happy. It’s time for you to get out of your way :)

Tara: Justin has a great program for nurse entrepreneurs for sure! It is because of The Elite NP and Justin’s great support that I’m launching this week! He and his platform is encouraging, uplifting and truly makes you believe you can be free from the system! Highly recommend!
