DENVER (AP) — Colorado health officials are considering eliminating a provision that allows a medical marijuana primary caregiver to be defined as someone who simply supplies the drug.

   
The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment is taking on the issue during an emergency meeting this morning. The meeting comes days after an Appeals Court ruled that a primary caregiver must have personal contact with medical marijuana patients and do more to help a patient with a debilitating condition that merely provide them marijuana.

    Colorado's health board say the ruling conflicts with the health board's definition of what constitutes significant responsibility for a patient. The board had said in August that just providing marijuana to a medical user satisfied that requirement.
