HOW TO GET YOUR MARYLAND MEDICAL CANNABIS CARD

Register with The Maryland Cannabis Commission

The Maryland Medical Cannabis Commission (MMCC) is responsible for verifying MD state residency and issuing medical Cannabis IDs.
Patients must first visit the MMCC website and complete the online registration.

Once approved (takes 1-3 days), the MMCC will send an approval email. This email will contain an MMCC identification number which will be important for Step Two. 

YOU WILL NEED 
A valid email address
The last four digits of your Social Security Number
An electronic copy of a valid U.S. government-issued photo ID and proof of Maryland address (if your license is not from the state of MD)
$25 fee for an MMCC ID card

STEP TWO

Schedule an appointment with a Certifying Health Provider 
Click Below to schedule!

You will need your MMCC Identification number issued by the MMCC before you schedule your appointment with a health provider. 

A medical cannabis consultation is like a doctors visit via virtual or in person. Providers will take a detailed medical history and make sure your medical condition that you are suffering from is appropriate for the use of medical cannabis.

 Once you are approved, the MMCC will mail your medical cannabis ID card. In the meantime, (same day of approval) you can visit a dispensary with your MMCC Certification or a temporary ID card printable from your MMCC patient portal. 

This certification is valid for one year. After it expires you just need to schedule another appointment with a health provider. 

STEP THREE

Visit A Dispensary 

The final step is to visit a dispensary. Once you have obtained both your MMCC registration and certification from a health care provider you can shop at your local dispensary.

It is very important to note that medical cannabis treatment is a personal journey. Cannabis patients have the freedom to tailor their medicines in a unique way. START LOW and Go SLOW is a great motto to follow. 
It is a good idea to brush up on some Cannabis Basics before your first visit to the dispensary. 

Here is what your will need on your first visit to a local dispensary: 
* Photo ID 
* MMCC ID card or MMCC Certification (printed out from MMCC patient portal -Maryland one stop
