– Patient enrolment and script process guide
– Access to free education and training. If you would like assistance prescribing medicinal cannabis or with TGA applications, you can access a medical portal for educational resources or contact The Global QUEST Initiative team.
What are my commitments as a doctor with participating patients?
- A five-minute patient registration input for eligible patients as part of the primary consult
- Medicinal cannabis prescribing to follow ‘normal pathway’ – SAS B or Authorised Prescriber
- Email of SAS B or Authorised Prescriber paperwork and e-Script to quest@oxfordcompounding.com.au
As this study requires patients to report their outcomes along their journey, there is minimal burden on the prescribing doctor.
If any patient would like to stop taking medicinal cannabis, the prescribing doctor is required to plan an exit strategy to titrate the patient off the medicinal cannabis and monitor them as per the initial standard patient monitoring plan submitted in the Special Access Scheme (SAS) application with the TGA.
