Episode Details

In this episode of Trade To Black, presented by Flowhub, hosts Shadd Dales and Anthony Varrell break down the new Medicare CBD pilot program — and why it could end up being one of the more important federal developments we’ve seen in years.For the first time, the U.S. government is testing a structured model where Medicare patients can receive a $500 annual benefit card to purchase qualifying hemp-derived CBD products. This is tied directly to the 2027 Medicare rule — so this isn’t theoretical, it’s a real pilot that’s been put in motion.To help make sense of it, Dr. Leigh Vinocur joins the show — one of the leading cannabis physicians in the country and a member of the National Cannabis Care Council (NCCC). This isn’t just a surface-level conversation — we get into how this actually works for patients, what kind of physician oversight is involved, and what CMS is ultimately trying to measure through this program.But the bigger question is this:Is this just a contained pilot… or an early step toward cannabinoids being integrated into the U.S. healthcare system?Because if this expands beyond 2027 — the implications for companies, investors, and policy are significant.#CannabisIndustry #CBD #Medicare #CannabisPolicy #Hemp #CannabisInvesting #HealthcareInnovation #CannabisStocks #Regulation #TDRWant to see more Cannabis Reform videos?🎬    • Hemp THC Drinks Shift Toward Federal Regul...  🎬    • Medicare CBD Program Raises Questions In W...  🎬    • Does Cannabis Rescheduling Actually Unlock...  🎬    • Texas Hemp Ban Creates Winners And Losers ...  Want to stay updated on Cannabis, Small Cap, AI, and Crypto?Subscribe to our Daily Baked newsletter:https://newsletter.thedalesreport.com...Find us on social media and podcast platforms:✅ Facebook:   / thedalesreport  ✅ Twitter:   / thedalesreport  ✅ Instagram:
