Benefits of Having a Medical Cannabis Card in Nevada
Even if you live in a recreational-use state, there are several advantages to becoming a medical marijuana patient.
Fewer Restrictions
Recreational cannabis is typically limited to patients over 21 years of age and comes with strict possession limits. As a medical marijuana patient, you face fewer restrictions and have more freedom to access your medication in greater quantities.
Greater Selection
A medical marijuana card affords you the privilege of shopping in both medicinal and adult-use dispensaries. Greater access means more products to choose from and more freedom to compare prices and find the best deals.
More Protection
Some recreational-use states still allow employers, landlords, and family courts to discriminate against cannabis users. A medical marijuana certification provides you with legal documentation demonstrating that your use is medically warranted. This can protect you against discriminatory or punitive actions in many states.
Better Prices
As a medical marijuana patient, you won’t be subject to the same sales or excise taxes required of recreational buyers. You may be able to save 10% or more on every purchase.

Find a Registered Medical Marijuana Doctor In Nevada
The first step in getting your Nevada medical marijuana card is to be evaluated and certified by a state-licensed medical cannabis doctor.
It can sometimes be difficult for patients to find a doctor who will certify them. We currently offer online telemedicine visits that allow you to be seen by a medical cannabis doctor from the comfort and security of home, making the search for a physician easy for you.
If you believe that you have one of the qualifying medical conditions and have at least one type of proof, then you will most likely qualify. Our doctor can evaluate you, review any medical documentation you are able to provide, and issue your provider statement so that you can apply for your card.
Register with the Nevada Medical Marijuana Registry
The next step after being certified by a doctor is to apply with the Nevada Medical Marijuana Registry as a cardholder. In order to apply, patients will need to have:
- Attending Healthcare Provider Statement signed by a doctor
- NV state-issued valid photo ID
Once you’re approved by our doctor, we’ll issue your signed Attending Healthcare Provider Statement the same day. You will then need to apply with the NV Medical Marijuana Registry as a cardholder.
It can take up to 30 days for the state to approve or deny your application. Once approved, you can use your electronic approval letter to access dispensaries for up to 60 days until you receive your physical ID card in the mail. ID cards are typically received within 7-10 business days of being fully approved.

- Oral products (such as capsules, elixirs, and tinctures)

Can I grow my own medical marijuana?
The state of Nevada allows cardholders to home cultivate if:
- There is no dispensary in your county of residence OR you do not live within 25 miles of a dispensary.
- There was no dispensary operating within 25 miles of where you live when you first applied and you have not had a lapse in your registration.
- You are unable to travel to a dispensary due to illness or transportation issues.
- The dispensaries in the county in which you live are unable to supply the strain of marijuana needed for your medical condition.
If you meet one of the above requirements for home cultivation, you may grow up to 12 plants (mature or immature).
Will anyone be able to find out that I am a Nevada medical marijuana patient?
No, as a medical patient you are protected by HIPAA. Green Health Docs makes the privacy and security of our patients’ confidential information a top priority. No one will be able to find out your status as a medical marijuana patient unless you openly tell them or if you are administered a drug test for marijuana.
Can my employer still administer a drug screening for marijuana if I am a legal medical patient in Nevada?
Yes. With Nevada being an at-will state and there not currently being any legislation in place that protects medical marijuana patients in the workplace, medical cardholders can still be administered drug screenings and receive disciplinary action regarding the results of drug screenings. For this reason, we recommend making sure you are fully aware of your employer’s policy regarding drug screenings and medical marijuana before moving forward with the process.
Can I renew with Green Health Docs if I was seen by a different doctor last year?
Yes! You do not have to be seen by the same doctor each year. If you were certified by another medical marijuana doctor last year and would like to switch to Green Health Docs, we will be happy to take care of you!
