In many cases, yes. Some states are allowing telemedicine evaluations. This means that you can complete your physician’s evaluation online and then apply for your medical marijuana card. The card—or at least the temporary card—is usually delivered via email, so you can complete every step of the registration process without leaving home. Telemedicine is not available in all states.

Our physicians can only certify patients who have a qualifying condition. However, if we assess you and are unable to provide you with a certification, you receive a 100% refund. There’s no risk in scheduling your evaluation.

In order to qualify, you must reside in a state with a medical marijuana program and have a qualifying condition. Qualifying conditions vary by state. Common examples include AIDS/HIV, Alzheimer’s, cachexia, cancer, chronic pain, glaucoma, PTSD, and seizures.

If you have a medical need for cannabis but you don’t have a qualifying condition, we still recommend speaking with a physician. Many states will still allow a patient to receive medical marijuana if a physician concludes that the patient would benefit from cannabis treatment.

If a child has a qualifying condition, the parent or guardian can usually register as a caretaker and administer medical marijuana treatment. Note that some states only allow children under 18 to access medical marijuana in extreme circumstances.

Your physician’s certification is good for one year in most states. You’ll need to renew it before you renew your medical marijuana card.

Not in most cases. You’ll use your physician’s recommendation to obtain your medical marijuana card. Then you’ll carry your card to gain access to dispensaries. There are exceptions, though. For example, Maryland doesn’t require you to carry a medical marijuana card. You can enter MD dispensaries with just your written certification and your Patient ID Number.

No. You can only use your card in the state where you are certified. However, if you visit a state with a reciprocal medical marijuana agreement, you can register for a temporary card in that state. You may need to provide your existing medical marijuana card and physician’s certification to apply for your temporary card.
