You may be wondering why you need a medical cannabis card in Missouri. Well, there are many benefits to being a medical cannabis card holder. Here are some of them:
Missouri passed legislation for the medical cannabis program in 2018 and it was rolled out over the following year. With Leafwell, getting your Missouri Medical Marijuana Card online is quick, easy and HIPAA compliant. This online application process came into effect in 2019 when medical marijauna was legalised in Missouri. Our telemedicine platform allows for a seamless and hassle-fee application process, from the comfort of your own home.
2018 – the Medical Marijuana Program in Missouri was approved on November 6th 2018
July 2019 – Applications for medical marijuana start being processed. The state announces it will have 30 days from the patient’s application to decide whether the patient qualifies for medical cannabis.
August 2019 – The state will start evaluating who qualifies for growing/cultivation, infusion, dispensary and distribution licenses.
2020 – new laws come into place permitting medical marijauna sales later in the year.
October 2020 – Licensed medical cannabis sales begin
Medical cannabis is now legal to purchase for qualifying patients of Missouri.
How to qualify
Patients must be aged 18 years old or over in order to qualify for a medical marijuana card and obtain a physician’s certificate for themselves in Missouri.
Previous convictions for possession do not disqualify an individual from applying for and successfully obtaining an MMJ ID Card. However, the card may be revoked for certain criminal conduct which occurs after the card has been issued.
There are dispensaries licensed across Missouri in all of the major counties which are ready to provide this vital service to individuals across the state holding a valid MMJ card.
Cities in Missouri cannot ban medical marijuana dispensaries, but they can limit where and what hours they operate so check in your local area before visiting.
According to Missouri law, the following debilitating conditions may qualify you for a medical marijuana card:
The current possession limits which a medical marijauna card permits in Missouri are up to 4 oz. every 30 days.
The Department of Health may set limits on the amount of marijuana possessed, provided that the limit is not less than 60 days’ supply.
For amounts greater than the possession limit, two physicians must sign the patient’s recommendation/certification. Cannabis is not available for recreational use in Missouri.
You can grow cannabis but you will need to apply for a Patient Cultivation Card in addition to your MMJ Card. This is very important at the moment as the purchase of medical marijuana from a dispensary is currently not yet legal in Missouri.
Therefore we recommend you do apply for a cultivator license when you submit your initial application and begin growing your own cannabis until the laws are changed. Dispensaries are planning to open June 2020, but this may change and could happen later in the year.
Patients may grow up to 6 cannabis plants on their own property in a locked, enclosed facility. It costs $100 for a Patient Cultivation Card.
If the patient has a caregiver, only one individual needs to apply for and obtain a cultivation license.
Only medical cannabis patients are permitted to grow cannabis plants in Missouri at this moment in time.
Caregivers
01
Caregivers must be aged 21 or over. Caregivers fill out their own application form, and must be listed on the patient’s application form as well. The Caregiver must register with the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services (DHSS).
02
The Caregiver must also give proof of identity and address in order to get a Caregiver Card. The Caregiver fee is $25.
03
Caregivers cannot use cannabis for themselves unless they have their own medical marijuana card, physician’s certificate and a qualifying condition.
There is no reciprocity between Missouri’s Medical Marijuana Program (MMMP) and other state medical marijuana programs.
Individuals licensed in another state do not automatically qualify for a license in Missouri.
