Exempts hospitals and hospital-affiliated clinics from the requirements. Requires that in order to engage in the medical use of marijuana, the patient or resident of the organization or residential facility must be a medical marijuana cardholder or have applied to be a medical marijuana cardholder. Protects an organization or residential facility [and its employees and contractors] from certain criminal liability related to the medical use of marijuana.
