Frequently asked questions

How do I get a medical marijuana card?

The process is different state to state. Leafwell can help you navigate the process.

Most state programs follow this pattern:

  1. Meet with a licensed healthcare provider to get approved for medical cannabis
  2. Submit your certificate or recommendation either online or via mail to the state program
    1. Many states charge a fee at this time
  3. Once the state approves you, you’ll either receive a physical card in the mail or can download a digital version for your cell phone

To qualify for a medical card, you’ll need to discuss a qualifying medical condition with your healthcare provider. The full list of each state’s qualifying conditions can be found on our state pages.

What conditions does medical marijuana work for?

This is difficult to answer with any certainty, as the evidence is mixed for many different conditions.

Where cannabis and cannabinoids seem to work particularly well is in autoimmune disorders (e.g. lupus, Crohn’s disease, type 1 diabetes), where the immune system becomes overactive and causes inflammation; and in neuroinflammatory conditions (e.g. epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis), where the brain, spinal cord and nervous system are figuratively “on fire”.

Cannabis seems to be of particular use for chronic and neuropathic (nerve) pain as well.

What documents do I need to qualify for a Medical Marijuana Card?

The requirements differ from state-to-state. Here’s a set of documents that will serve you well for a medical marijuana card application in most if not all states:

  1. Photographic ID – driving license, state-issued ID card, US passport. For minors, a birth certificate is suitable as well.
  2. 2 x Proof of address from within the last 3 months, such as a letter from a hospital or state department, bank statement, utility bill (not cell phone), insurance letter, or rental/mortgage agreement.
  3. Medical records – this can include doctor’s notes, medical images (e.g. MRI, X-rays), and medication lists.
    • Many states do not legally require the patient to submit medical records.
  4. A passport-style and -sized photograph, saved onto your computer (and in hard copy as well if the application is being mailed in).
