Secretary of Health Dr. Karen Murphy Friday announced applications are now available online for laboratories to become an approved laboratory for the testing of medical marijuana for the Commonwealth’s medical marijuana program.
“Testing laboratories are an essential part of our medically focused program,” Secretary Murphy said. “Once selected, these facilities will ensure the medication patients receive at dispensaries is safe and effective.”
A laboratory must first be approved by the Department of Health to identify, collect, handle or conduct tests on medical marijuana samples from a grower/processor, or conduct tests on test samples for the department.
The approval is valid for two years from the date of issuance for the approved laboratory location specified in the application.
