Protect terminally ill patients!

A proposed DEA rule would ban providers from prescribing meds via telehealth if they haven’t conducted an in-person exam. Submit a comment by 3/31 to request an exemption for terminal and seriously ill patients. https://t.co/cSRBPA44Rv

Fay Hoh Yin was diagnosed with incurable T-cell lymphoma in 2014 & sadly passed in 2020. She believed terminally ill patients should have control of their care when the pain becomes unbearable, & advocated to give others the choices that she did not have. https://t.co/uQg1bwFkqr
