If you are looking to obtain cannabis for medicinal purposes you should first understand what the qualifying conditions for a medical card in Maryland are.
So, what is the process to obtain a medical cannabis card in Maryland? See the process step by step, below.
Step 1: Register as a Patient
The first thing you need to do is to register as a patient with the Maryland Medical Cannabis Commission (MMCC).
This is only available as an option for adult patients 18 and above.
If you are a minor (under age 18) you may be able to register as long as you have at least one caregiver assigned to your account at all times who are registered with the commission before registering you as a minor.
Step 2: Find a Provider to Give Written Certification
Once you are registered In MMCC you will want to find a provider who is registered within there as well. This provider must approve medical cannabis as a treatment for your qualifying condition.
You must receive a written certification from your provider to approve you for medical cannabis.
Step 3: Visit Your Local Dispensary
Once you have been approved you need to submit your written certification and print your temporary patient ID card.
Bring all of these items with you to your local dispensary in order to purchase your medical marijuana.
