Benefits of Having a Medical Marijuanas Card in MO and Other Recreation States
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.

Will my insurance company cover the certification process, consultation, or medical marijuana application in Missouri?
No. Insurance companies do not cover any medical marijuanas card costs associated with medical marijuana due to conflicts with federal law.
Where can I get medical marijuana once I am certified for medical marijuana in Missouri?
Legal patients can obtain medical marijuana products from licensed dispensaries located throughout the state. Patients will also be able to use their card in other medical states that offer reciprocity, such as Oklahoma.
Do I need to carry a medical marijuana patient ID card?
No. The state decided not to issue physical ID cards, but patients are required to have the digital copy of their medical ID card in order to be able to purchase from dispensaries.

Can I grow my own medical marijuana or can my caregiver grow it?
Yes! Missouri medical patients and caregivers interested in growing will need to apply for a separate cultivation license when registering with the DHSS.

Those with a cultivation license will be able to grow up to 6 flowering and 6 nonflowering plants at one time in a closed, locked facility that is indoors.
Will anyone be able to find out that I am a Missouri 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 Missouri?
Yes. With Missouri 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 still get a Missouri medical marijuana card if I’m on probation or parole?
Missouri does not have any restrictions regarding patients on probation or parole, however, you must get permission from your probation or parole officer before pursuing a Missouri medical marijuanas card.
What happens if I am stopped by law enforcement?
As a legal medical marijuana patient, you are protected. Patients do not have to disclose that they possess medical marijuana and do not have to consent to a search. However, if a search is conducted and medical marijuana is found, the patient should immediately present their patient ID card or direct law enforcement to the DHSS database to show that they are a legal patient.
Do Missouri dispensaries recognize other states’ medical marijuana ID cards?
No. You must be certified in Missouri by a registered medical marijuana doctor to legally access and purchase from dispensaries in the state.
Can I use my Missouri medical marijuanas card in another state?
Yes, there are multiple states currently accepting Missouri medical cards including Oklahoma. The laws for using out-of-state medical cards vary from state to state, so the best way to find out is by contacting a dispensary in the state you’re interested in visiting to find out for sure.
How do I renew my medical marijuana card in Missouri?
You will need to be seen by a doctor once per year in order to remain certified. The expiration date for your certification can be found on your MMCC written certification. The fee to be re-certified is $150. You will also need to re-apply with the state every 3 years in order to remain registered as a patient. The expiration date for your state registration is found on your MMCC patient ID card. The fee to register with the state again is $50.
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!
Can I smoke medical marijuana in Missouri if I have a card?
