Hawaii SB2274 repeals the authority for the Department of Health to inspect medical records of qualifying patients for medical cannabis.

Hawaii SB2274 repeals Section 329-123.2 of the Hawaii Revised Statutes, which allowed the Department of Health to inspect medical records of qualifying patients for medical cannabis. The bill also removes the authority to suspend or revoke the ability of physicians, advanced practice registered nurses, or hospice providers to issue written certifications for medical cannabis if they refuse inspection or if their records do not comply with the requirements. The changes do not affect rights, duties, penalties, or proceedings that were already in effect.
