About Medical Cannabis UK
Compliance software for UK medical cannabis providers
The Problem
UK medical cannabis is legal but heavily regulated. Clinics and pharmacies operating in this space face a constant compliance burden: CQC requirements, prescription tracking obligations, patient data protection, and evolving regulatory guidance. Most handle this with spreadsheets, paper trails, and manual processes that don't scale.
Generic healthcare software doesn't fit because it wasn't built for cannabis-specific workflows. And cannabis-focused tools from other markets (US, Canada) don't account for UK regulatory requirements.
The result is that clinics spend too much time on paperwork and not enough on patient care. Staff worry about compliance gaps. Inspections create stress that could be avoided with better systems.
What We're Building
Prescription Lifecycle Tracking
From issue through to dispensing, every prescription is logged with a complete audit trail. Integration with existing prescription systems where possible, standalone tracking where needed. The goal is a single source of truth for every controlled substance movement.
CQC-Aligned Compliance Checks
Built-in checks flag potential issues before they become problems. Missing documentation, consent expirations, follow-up scheduling gaps—the system monitors and alerts. Designed around actual CQC inspection criteria so you're always prepared.
Patient Management
Secure patient records with consent tracking, outcome monitoring, and treatment history. Privacy by design—data minimisation, access controls, and encryption throughout. Patients can be confident their information is protected.
Automated Reporting
One-click report generation for regulatory submissions. Monthly summaries, incident logs, inventory reconciliations—the reports you need without the manual collation. Export formats that work with existing regulatory systems.
Who It's For
Private Clinics
Specialist cannabis clinics prescribing to patients. Managing consultations, prescriptions, and patient outcomes in one system.
Pharmacies
Dispensing pharmacies handling cannabis prescriptions. Inventory tracking, dispensing records, and supplier management.
Distributors
Licensed cannabis importers and distributors. Chain of custody documentation and B2B transaction records.
Our Approach
Compliance First
Every feature is designed around regulatory requirements. We work with industry experts and legal advisors to ensure the platform reflects current guidance—and updates when regulations change.
UK-Specific
Built specifically for the UK regulatory environment. No awkward adaptations from overseas systems. CQC, MHRA, Home Office requirements baked in from the start.
Education-Led
The platform includes guidance and documentation to help staff understand requirements, not just meet them. Training resources, regulatory updates, and best practice guides included.
Current Status
We're in early development, working closely with industry advisors to ensure we're building something that actually addresses real compliance challenges. The regulatory landscape for medical cannabis is still evolving, and we're tracking those changes carefully.
If you operate a cannabis clinic, pharmacy, or distribution business in the UK, we'd value your input. Early access partners will help shape the platform and receive preferential terms when we launch.
