Beginning January 1, 2019: All NEW patients must purchase MMCC ID cards at registration
Expiration date extended to 3 years for MMCC ID cards issued after January 1, 2019​
​The patient may go to any licensed dispensary to pick up medical marijuana.
​After the provider has examined the patient and the patient’s records, the provider may issue the patient a certification immediately.​
​If the patient has a chronic or debilitating disease or medical condition that causes: cachexia, anorexia, wasting syndrome, severe or muscle spasms, severe nausea, seizures, severe or persistent muscle spasms, glaucoma, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), or another chronic medical condition which is severe and for which other treatments have been ineffective.
A Maryland patient can only obtain legal medical marijuana from a Maryland-licensed dispensary.
The certification issued by a provider for a patient identifies the amount of dried flower and THC that the patient may purchase in a 30-day period. The limit is calculated as a ROLLING 30-day limit- not by calendar month.
A patient can order an ID card by logging into their account through the MMCC website however, a patient may only order an ID card after their patient application has been approved and they have received certification from a registered provider.
If your patient ID card is lost, stolen or damaged you must log in to your MMCC account and report it. There will be a replacement card cost of $100
A legal patient may travel to any location in the state of Maryland (other than federal government property when in possession of medical marijuana).
Possession of marijuana is a violation of federal law and Maryland residents should carefully read the current state statutes regarding the use of medical marijuana and be aware that taking marijuana across state lines is a federal offence.
Marijuana is also illegal on federal government property. The State of Maryland laws cannot authorize you to travel to other states, jurisdictions, or countries with this medicine in your possession.
A patient may designate up to two persons as caregivers.
Children who meet their provider’s criteria for treatment can become legal patients in Maryland. However, children must have a parent or guardian serve as a caregiver.
​A patient may obtain MMJ from a dispensary of their choice. The patient’s certification will be recorded in the Commission’s database and can be confirmed by any licensed dispensary.​
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 present their patient ID card or direct law enforcement to our database.
Health insurers are not required to cover the cost of medical marijuana.
Patients pay $50.00 at time of registration for an ID card.
Yes
There is no plan to add Edibles and additional medical conditions at this time.
Visit the Maryland Department of Health for more information.
$179 Renewal fee. Sign up fee costs $200.
Per 19 CSR 30-95.030, no qualifying patient shall consume marijuana for medical use in a public place, unless provided by law. 19 CSR 30-95.010 defines a public place as any public or private property, or portion of public or private property, that is open to the general public, including but not limited to, sidewalks, streets, bridges, parks, schools and businesses. See 19 CSR 30-95.010(33) for more information.
The patient identification card does not offer individuals protections from violating laws pertaining to operating a motorized vehicle while under the influence. Nothing in Article XIV permits a person to operate, navigate, or be in actual physical control of any dangerous device or motor vehicle, aircraft or motorboat while under the influence of marijuana.
The qualifying patient’s physician may certify up to four ounces of dried, unprocessed marijuana, or its equivalent, in a 30-day period. If there is a compelling reason why the qualifying patient needs a greater amount, then the Department requires two independent physician certifications specifying what other amount the qualifying patient needs. See 19 CSR 30-95.030(5)(E) for more information.
Facility licenses have been awarded, and a list of licensed facilities can be found on the Licensed Facilities page. Facilities are required to pass a commencement inspection prior to becoming operational. The Department cannot say when facilities will be open since much depends on the circumstances and readiness of each business.
No, only a Missouri licensed dispensary facility will be authorized to sell medical marijuana to patients.
No. Licensed dispensaries may accept only Missouri-issued cards, and any patients cultivating marijuana in Missouri must do so in accordance with all the provisions in 19 CSR 30-95.030.
No. There is no reciprocity between Missouri’s Medical Marijuana Program and other state medical marijuana programs. Just because you are licensed in another state doesn’t automatically qualify you for a license in Missouri. Patients may purchase medical marijuana in Missouri only upon presentation of a Department-issued patient identification card.
The Department maintains a list of licensed dispensaries on its website.
Yes. Dispensaries are required to charge four percent of the retail price in additional to any other applicable state or local taxes.
Only those patients and caregivers with a valid Department-issued identification card may legally possess marijuana in accordance with 19 CSR 30-95.030. Article XIV of the Missouri Constitution provides that, once the Department begins accepting patient applications, those applications will be acted upon by the Department within 30 days after receipt.

You may be eligible for medical marijuana if you have been diagnosed with one or more of the following severe debilitating or life-threatening conditions: cancer, HIV infection or AIDS, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury with spasticity, epilepsy, inflammatory bowel disease, neuropathy, Huntington’s disease, post-traumatic stress disorder, chronic pain (as defined by 10 NYCRR §1004.2(a)(8)(xi)), pain that degrades health and functional capability as an alternative to opioid use or substance use disorder.
The severe debilitating or life-threatening condition must also be accompanied by one or more of the following associated or complicating conditions: cachexia or wasting syndrome, severe or chronic pain, severe nausea, seizures, or severe or persistent muscle spasms, PTSD, or opioid use disorder.
The first step is speaking with your treating practitioner about whether the medical use of marijuana is appropriate for your condition.
If your practitioner determines it is an appropriate treatment for you and he or she is registered with the New York State Department of Health’s Medical Marijuana Program, he or she may issue you a certification for medical marijuana.
Additional conditions may be added by the Commissioner of Health, or they may be added in legislation.
The Commissioner must approve any form of medical marijuana. Approved forms include, but are not limited to: solid or semi-solid dosage forms (such as capsules, tablets, and lozenges), metered liquid or oil preparations (for vaporization or oral administration), metered ground plant preparations, and topicals and transdermal patches.
Under the law, smoking is not permitted and the regulations prohibit edibles. Please contact the registered organization directly to find out more about the products they have available.
The patient’s certifying practitioner must include the following information on the patient’s certification: the authorized brand and form of the approved medical marijuana, the administration method, and any limitations on the use of approved medical marijuana products.
If a practitioner has a recommendation regarding dosage, it should also be included on the certification, although a recommendation on dosage is not required. Moreover, the total amount of product that may be dispensed may not exceed a thirty-day supply.
Please visit the following link for information, including links to the Registered Organizations’ websites:Â Registered Organizations
A certified patient may receive medical marijuana products from any dispensing facility of any Registered Organization in New York State. For a list of locations in New York, please visit Registered Organizations.

Registered Organizations may dispense up to a 30-day supply of medical marijuana to a certified patient or designated caregiver, pursuant to any recommendations or limitations made by the practitioner on the certification.
Registered Organizations report their medical marijuana dispensing to the New York State Prescription Monitoring Program (PMP) database, so that prescribers may review their patients’ controlled substance histories and make informed treatment decisions.
Work with your certifying practitioner or a dispensing facility pharmacist to determine if a change in product, change in dose, or discontinuation of the product is appropriate.
If you are experiencing a life-threatening emergency, call 911 or go to an emergency room immediately. If you believe you are experiencing an adverse event that is not life-threatening from the approved medical marijuana product, contact your practitioner.
Certified patients or their designated caregivers should dispose of expired or unwanted medical marijuana products by adding water to the medical marijuana and then dirt, coffee grounds, ashes or another undesirable substance, prior to disposal in the trash, to avoid accidental or intentional misuse of the product.
During the patient registration process, a certified patient may designate up to two (2) caregivers who may obtain medical marijuana on his or her behalf.
After the patient’s application for registration is approved, the designated caregiver(s) must also register with the Department. Detailed information on designating and becoming a caregiver is available here:Â Information for Patients
Registered organizations may also offer a delivery service. Please contact the registered organizations directly to determine if delivery services are offered in your area.
No. Only certified patients with a New York State registry identification card may purchase approved medical marijuana products in New York State.

Yes, July 1, 2020, possession of authorized medical marijuana products by those registered to participate in the state’s program are provided explicit statutory legal protection.
Yes, there are four dispensaries open. Dharma Pharmaceuticals in Bristol, gLeaf in Richmond, Beyond-Hello in Manassas and Columbia Care in Portsmouth.
As of February 2021, four dispensaries are open. In 2017, Virginia approved a regulatory program for the in-state production of extraction-based medical marijuana products by five providers, initially, one per Health Service Area (HSA), who will grow, extract, dispense and deliver the products.
These licensed providers​ are called “pharmaceutical processors” in Code, and are simply vertically-integrated marijuana companies, meaning everything from growth through dispensation is done on one site by one company.
Additionally, 2020Â legislation allows the licensed processors to open an additional five “marijuana dispensing facilities” (dispensaries) in their Health Service Area.
Patients must bring a valid, government issued ID, their medical marijuana card issued by the Virginia Board of Pharmacy, and a printed copy of their unexpired written certification.
Only patients and registered agents may enter the dispensary. Children, spouses, and aids are not permitted unless they are registered.
A “90-day supply.” This is ultimately determined by the pharmacist in consultation with the patient.
Please visit How to Register for more information.
Fee is $50 for patients; $25 for parent/legal guardian or registered agent.
