FIRST: HOW DO I JOIN THE MEDICAL CANNABIS PROGRAM?
IDENTIFY YOUR QUALIFYING CONDITIONS:
FIND A HEALTH CARE PRACTITIONER:
Patients need to have a qualifying condition and register with Minnesota’s Department of Health, Office of Medical Cannabis. Any Minnesota licensed physician, physician assistant (PA) or an advanced practice registered nurse (APRN) can certify patients if they choose. You will need to certify your qualifying condition with a Physician registered in the Minnesota State Medical Cannabis Program/ Feel free to use our list to begin your search.
REGISTER WITH THE OFFICE OF MEDICAL CANNABIS:
Once Certified, you will receive an email with a link to apply to the medical cannabis program.
-
- Patients will need to fill out an application and upload a copy of their State Photo ID.
- They will be required to pay a year fee of $200. Patients under specific assistance programs can submit paperwork for a decreased fee of $50.
- Patients will have to wait 1 – 30 days for approval. If patients receive no communication from the OMC after 30 days, it is advised to call OMC for further assistance.
Once you receive an approval email, you are now able to visit one of our Cannabis Patient Centers.
If you require a Caregiver, please be sure they register.
