flag CMS launches CBD reimbursement pilot for seniors, sparking safety and regulatory concerns.

flag The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services is launching a pilot program to reimburse CBD products for seniors with chronic pain, bypassing FDA approval requirements. flag Critics warn that unregulated CBD products vary in potency and THC content, posing safety risks and undermining established drug standards. flag The plan conflicts with federal hemp laws limiting THC to 0.3% and raises concerns about creating a "shadow medical system" without scientific validation. flag While CMS calls it a data-gathering effort, opponents say it risks exposing vulnerable patients to ineffective or harmful treatments and erodes trust in federal healthcare oversight.
