How to Get a Medical Card in Maryland

Make an appointment

Booking an appointment is the first step in the process. Through the KIF platform, you can book an appointment from the comfort of your home. To complete your booking, you must submit your medical history and any additional documents you may have.

Step 2

Consult a doctor

If all goes according to plan, using KIF, you can find the best MMJ doctor in your area. During the consultation, you can expect the process to take 10 to 15 minutes. A medical marijuana consultation offers you the opportunity to speak with a doctor online who will help you understand your condition in greater detail and answer any questions you may have about using medical cannabis.

Once you qualify for a medical marijuana card, you’ll receive a letter recommending marijuana use. You can then apply to the state for a card based on the letter.

Step 3

Getting approval

If you receive a medical marijuana referral letter from the Maryland Department of Health, you should apply for a card. You should expect to receive your medical marijuana card in the mail within two to three weeks once the state approves your application

With the temporary card you currently have, you can start purchasing medical marijuana while you wait for your permanent card to arrive at your home.

About medical cannabis in Maryland

A group of Maryland State University graduates have developed apps that track the effects of cannabis strains on the body as a result of the Natalie M. LaPrade Maryland Medical Cannabis Commission (MMCC), which was established in 2015. Through Smith's personal experience and the expertise of a group of technicians, the app was developed. "When Smith first joined the Maryland Medical Cannabis Commission, he was overwhelmed by all the cannabis products available as an alternative to opioids for pain stemming from a 2003 car accident in which he was ejected from the vehicle," The Gazette reports. State cannabis arrest protocols are changing as residents create progressive cannabis apps. The Maryland State Supreme Court ruled in July 2020 that the Baltimore Police Department cannot arrest someone for the smell of cannabis.

How to Become a Medical Cannabis Patient in Maryland

Obtaining medical marijuana in Maryland is done in three steps, starting with requesting a prescription. To begin, make an appointment with a doctor who can review your medical history and examine your ailments and conditions. You'll also need to register at the Maryland Medical Center as a new patient and submit a photograph of a government-issued ID that shows your Maryland address and does not clearly obscure your identity (driver's license, passport, etc.), as well as a $25 state fee.

Requirements in Maryland

aryland offers medical cannabis cards to patients who meet certain conditions, including: Anorexia Cachexia or wasting syndrome Glaucoma PTSD Seizures Severe nausea Severe or chronic pain Severe or persistent muscle spasms Beyond that, the state allows any other “chronic medical condition that has been severe for a significant period of time and cannot be treated with any other treatment” as an acceptable reason for card approval. Patients must present a valid driver’s license or state identification card, as well as one or more qualifying conditions, in order to establish Maryland residency. The registration fee is $25.

Benefits of having a medical card in Maryland

In Maryland, voters voted to legalize cannabis for adult use, but patients with a medical card who purchased cannabis would enjoy clear advantages over those without.

Currently, there doesn't appear to be any legal framework that regulates, taxes, or governs the sale of cannabis for adults. All we know is that recreational cannabis will not be available to adults and those 21 and older until July 1, 2023. As it stands, medical marijuana is legal for patients who need more immediate relief.

Tax Considerations:

There is no sales tax on cannabis products to medical cannabis patients in any of the U.S. states and territories that have legalized it. Should Maryland follow suit, patients could save a lot of money by having a medical card.

Higher Purchase Limits

A physician certifying a patient for medical marijuana may authorize the patient to purchase the following amount of cannabis continuously for 30 days (although a physician may certify a patient for more than this amount if deemed necessary):

Dried cannabis flower up to 120 grams (4 ounces);

THC content of concentrates, edibles, and extracts up to 36 grams.
