Marijuana laws for both medical and recreational use are loosening across the globe. Among the countries at the forefront of laxer marijuana laws, Germany announced it would legalize cannabis for medicinal purposes in 2017.

What makes Germany’s new marijuana law unique is that it would require health insurance to cover the costs of medical marijuana in the absence of therapeutic alternatives. As a result, almost anyone in the country would be able to afford medical marijuana treatment, which is already significantly cheaper in comparison to other treatment options.
