Is this clinic just for armed forces ,police ,fire and emergency services or is it available to everyone at the £50 a year cost? Had a look but still no clearer.

Hello everybody,
I thought I'd start a thread to discuss the new CB1 Medical app as I am currently having a few issues with it and I'm guessing others will too. So we can have a little place to help each other through the transition to the new system!
I'm thinking
Device:
android \ apple \ pc
Title:
A short title of what you are having an issue with when using the app
Issues:
More information on what you having trouble with and what you have tried sofar.
WARNING:
Do not share any personal information, passwords, screenshots of the app with identifying information or any other identifying information. Double check before posting. This is your personal medical information. If an issue requires this kind of trouble shooting email cb1 medical directly for help.
This is more of a rouble shoot to make a user guide for new users
I'll start with my issues in a new post below to show the layout style I feel could work best for people trying to help

Android
What does THC limit reached mean?
And where did all the strains go?
I am currently trying to request some medication as part of my monthly allowance, I added a new strain to my basket and when trying to add a second that is 20+ % I am given a THC limit reached message instead of it saying add.
Also the strains offered on the repeated prescription page is quite limited compared to looking at the formulary we are used to seeing also the stock levels all seem different from the original formulary.

Trying to install on pc but saying you have to install on phone first.
When I try and install on i phone, the google account on the phone is tied to an old email account that we cant access any more ,so cant install it on phone either as cant remember password and cant get access to where they would send new password link to.

Seems they have only just adopted Script Assist and its app literally yesterday. Teething problems will be natural and to be expected. I had a few, which they sorted. Simple enough to use to be honest, but no other progress yet to me. Will be patient for now... I had no app or menu before, so it looks like an upgrade for me. Let's see.
I do hope that this will be a real process with follow through. Access to flower they don't have yet can be critical, and getting access is a key way for them to retain business and stay financially healthy. It's not just about getting GLO products.
@Muiredach did you get any feeling from them they understand that flower choice is not just about THC/CBD levels and that different product's curing and strains can lead to different terpene profiles? Otherwise, there's a risk that actual follow through could be slow or not really happen.
From what I understand this is indeed a teething issue/bug, and should ultimately be resolved. I've otherwise heard recently that Script Assist report no major issues so far with launch and that they're quickly patching minor bugs.
(We're expecting Integro's app to launch before too long too, and it can already be installed.)
In short clinicians don't have much to go on beyond THC/CBD, and in some cases terpene information and irradiation method. For the latter, it's hard to even know how to interpret values based on authoritative peer-reviewed research, studies, data et cetera.

This is overall a hard argument to make, clinicians are foremost receptive to considering quantifiable metrics. If they can see something on a COA or in other official info provided which could impact suitability they'll consider it, but to them things like the difference between curing/cultivars is not really tangible in their self-verifiable data as provided to them by authoritative sources.

This is the thing for any dispensing business to understand. Because market forces will dominate. And CB1 Medical people seem smart (I've just been overthinking since Jorja Emerson Centre).
If there is a reasonable hypothesis of a strain upside (there is already broad terpene research that is sufficiently generalisable) and with no likely clinical downside or material difference in cost, a medic should have zero problem.
That's a reasonable way of thinking for any choice of clinician for anything - to filter our cookie cutter medicine. Not always simple, even in private healthcare and esp in NHS contexts, but doable.
That does of course depend on an easy registry of complete information. Which of course is entirely the point of Medbud from a medic's perspective.
I totally get that this will be the instinct of many clinicians. Quantifiable science is a positive counterweight to quackery.
Flip side is the cost of misplaced risk-aversion, often by avoiding absolutely anything that is unquantified. It's also a problem outside of MC. This often means too many medics are comfortable with inferior/horrific outcomes, if they can be justified by an irrelevant application of quants. Especially when medics grasp for numerical comfort blankets to manage their fears of scrutiny. It's cultural mindset problem common in many professions. Of course, usually not knowingly. Sometimes it's down to lack of time or underconfidence. Sometimes it's just poor scientific instincts.
Best practice recognises that medical practice is the artful application of science in xyz context. And those docs realise that medical practice is not a science in itself. Confident/experienced/passionate medics realise that 1) specific numbers only measure X, 2) do not measure Y and that 3) accounting for Z can more than just compatible with the known numbers, but be clinically necessary or effectively riskless.

Probably the only way to do this would be to require passing on of costs directly at market rates. Wouldn't surprise me if that's already implicitly required by existing dispensing regs / standards.

I use good old fashioned voice technology... find a good pharmacist within CB1 Medical and speak to the same person. Works for me so far.

Cool - an existing patient!
They seem very pleasant so far. How do you find them? Do you speak to the actual pharmacists or staff?

This uptick in patient numbers is going to be a major test. I guess the app will be critical to successfully keeping up with the scale.

Sofar the issues I have had.
my first prescription:
The vape cart I ordered was out of stock ( Upstate blueberry kush) changed for vida blueberry cookies and happy with the alternative.
It did put my first delivery behind a few days.
Second request from my prescription:
delivery was perfect and super quick. Well packaged ect.
Third request from my prescription:
App Issues phoned and seem to be getting resolved will update tomorrow with the outcome.
Any issue I have had has been fixed as soon as they have been made aware. I cant falt the clinic, even my issues have been a good experience to get resolved. No bouncing from person to person. Just a quick call and a chat.

I downloaded the app the other day and have just got it sorted out. They said I'm eligible for medical. I've updated my ID and my doctors details. There nothing else it's asking me to do. How long have you been a customer for rainbone.

I joined around start of last month before the app launch. They have been a great service. The dr I spoke to was really knowledgeable and was more than happy for ne to check out what strains they had on their list and place my order as I needed new strains to try as I work out the best for my issues
Super nice team to speak to also when you need any advice or help

Thank you. Are you a new patient or did you move from another clinic. I'm just wondering how long it will take for me to speak to a Dr as im new to all this thanks.
My wife is a new customer and for her it'll be just under 3 weeks from first phone call to doctors appointment for her.
