Life insurance for Medical Marijuana user?
Is it possible to get a healthy (best rate) health insurance for a CA, medical Marijuana user? I use everyday for insomnia (before bed) and hate to think i have to stop the medication for a few months to get a good quote. I am in great shape (marathon runner) and in my late thirties. I know that some of you who balk at Medical Marijuana but that not the debate.(so leave those "you should take drugs" comments out. I just wanna know who I can contact (and be honest with my use) and not get a "smokers rate" I don’t even smoke it when i take it.
My Buddy just went through this last year.he was getting a $1.500.000 policy and they sent a nurse to his office to give him a check up and draw fluids(urine and blood) He had to dry out for a month before the appointment.If you have a doctors script for MMJ they can’t judge you on that.And what about if you were taking MARINOL you would also test positive…This might be a good question for your States Insurance Commissioner…
Hope this helps some..
Medical marijuana is OK because it is approved by a doctor
Don’t forget that it is also a stimulant, so you may want to extend your sleeping time, as part of your sleep will be still "awake", its complicated, but you don’t want to find out the hard way
