Frequently Asked Questions

Once your qualified Marijuana Doctor has entered your information into the Medical Marijuana Use Registry, you will be able to apply for your Medical Marijuana Use Registry Identification Card.

Qualified patients with an active physician certification, including edibles as an approved route of administration, may purchase medical cannabis edibles from medical marijuana treatment centers (dispensaries) in Oregon.

In any medical practice, the record of your evaluation is protected & private under federal laws through the Health Insurance Portability & Accountability Act (HIPAA). Further, by law, doctor-patient confidentiality prohibits the police, DMV, & employers from accessing your medical records without your written permission or consent.

As of June 27, 2021, the use of telemedicine services to re-certify existing patients in the Medical Marijuana Use Registry is no longer allowed. You will have to make an in-person appointment at Marijuana Doctor to re-certify.

To maintain an active Medical Marijuana Use Registry Identification Card, patients & caregivers must annually submit a renewal application. Renewal applications are available beginning 45 days prior to the expiration date of the card. The expiration date of the identification card is printed on the front of the card. The renewal application can be completed at mmuregistry.flhealth.gov. Detailed step-by-step instruction for renewal can be found here.

• Medical marijuana in a form for smoking must remain in its original plain, white packaging
• Medical marijuana may not be smoked in public or an indoor workplace
• A private party may restrict or limit smoking or vaping medical marijuana on his or her private property
• Patients under the age of 18 may not obtain a certification for marijuana for medical use by smoking unless the patient is diagnosed with a terminal condition & a second physician, who is a board-certified pediatrician, agrees with the determination

Patients must first be treated by our qualified physicians & be diagnosed with a qualifying medical condition. Our qualified physicians must determine that smoking is an appropriate route of administration for medical marijuana & have the patient sign an updated consent form before placing an order for medical marijuana in a form for smoking for the patient in the Medical Marijuana Use Registry. Once the qualified patient receives their certification for smoking, they may then purchase medical marijuana in a form for smoking from a licensed medical marijuana treatment center, using their valid Medical Marijuana Use Registry Identification Card.

Your appointment will take about 30-60 minutes. Once you submit the state application, it will take roughly 10-14 business days for the state to process & approve your application.
