Florida’s Medical Marijuana Program: Eligibility and Registration Process

Florida has strict eligibility requirements for patients seeking medical cannabis. To qualify, individuals must be diagnosed with at least one of the state-approved conditions, such as chronic pain, cancer, PTSD, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, Crohn’s disease, or glaucoma. Additionally, patients with terminal illnesses or conditions similar to those on the list may also be eligible if approved by a licensed physician. Only Florida residents with proof of residency can apply for a medical marijuana card, though seasonal residents (snowbirds) may qualify with sufficient documentation.

How to Find a Qualified Medical Marijuana Doctor in Florida

Patients must visit a state-certified physician who is registered with Florida’s Office of Medical Marijuana Use (OMMU). Unlike traditional doctors, only those with specialized training in cannabis medicine can provide recommendations. The physician will evaluate the patient’s medical history, symptoms, and previous treatments to determine if medical marijuana is a suitable option. If approved, the doctor submits the patient’s information to the OMMU registry, allowing them to proceed with the application process.

Steps to Register for a Medical Marijuana Card in Florida

Once approved by a physician, patients must register with the OMMU and complete the following steps:

Create an online profile in the Florida Medical Marijuana Use Registry.
Submit proof of residency, such as a Florida driver’s license or utility bill.
Pay the $75 application fee, plus a small processing charge.
Wait for approval, which typically takes 7-10 business days.
Receive a temporary email approval (valid for dispensary purchases) while waiting for the physical card.

Once approved, patients can legally purchase cannabis from any licensed Medical Marijuana Treatment Center (MMTC) in Florida.

How Long Does a Florida Medical Marijuana Card Last?

A Florida medical marijuana card is valid for one year from the date of issuance. However, patients must see their physician every 210 days (about seven months) for a reevaluation to maintain access to dispensaries. Patients should renew their card at least 45 days before expiration to avoid disruptions in treatment.

Can Caregivers Apply for a Medical Marijuana Card in Florida?

Yes, caregivers can apply on behalf of a patient who is unable to manage their medical marijuana use independently. Caregivers must be at least 21 years old, pass a background check, and be registered with the OMMU. They are responsible for purchasing and administering cannabis for their assigned patient.
