Eligibility for Medical Cannabis 

Eligibility for Medical Cannabis Treatment in Australia

Medicinal cannabis has become a vital therapeutic option for many Australians managing a range of chronic and debilitating conditions. At MOCA Health, we’re committed to simplifying the process of accessing medical cannabis through our convenient telehealth clinic, ensuring patients receive the care and treatment they need.

Who Qualifies for Medical Cannabis in Australia?

Under Australian regulations, medicinal cannabis may be prescribed to patients with specific medical conditions that have not responded to conventional treatments. Common conditions that may qualify include:

• Chronic Pain: For patients with persistent pain that significantly impacts their quality of life.

• Anxiety Disorders: When traditional medications fail to provide relief or cause adverse side effects.

• Neurological Disorders: Conditions such as multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, and Parkinson’s disease.

• Cancer-related Symptoms: Including pain, nausea, and loss of appetite associated with cancer or chemotherapy.

• Sleep Disorders: For patients struggling with chronic insomnia or other sleep-related issues.

• Inflammatory Conditions: Such as arthritis and Crohn’s disease, where inflammation causes significant discomfort.

This is not an exhaustive list, as eligibility is assessed on a case-by-case basis. MOCA Health’s experienced healthcare professionals work closely with patients to determine if medicinal cannabis is an appropriate treatment option.
