Medical records uploaded to a disc or USB flash drive cannot be accepted. You must bring your Maryland driver’s license or State ID card with you to your appointment.

Your Appointment For Your Medical Marijuana Card In Parkville

During your appointment, the provider will review your medical records and your electronic intake forms and will be happy to answer any questions you may have. If your provider determines that you qualify for a medical marijuana recommendation, you will be certified as a Maryland medical cannabis patient. This certification will then be entered into the Maryland Medical Cannabis Commission (MMCC) database.

When you are going through this certification appointment, your Maryland medical marijuana doctor will be able to guide you through what your certification means. There will be a limit on the amount of cannabis that you are able to purchase at the dispensary. Your medical marijuana doctor will go over this limit with you.

The standard amount certification issued by a provider for a patient identifies the quantity of dried flower or THC that the patient can purchase in each 30-day period. The standard amount is 120 grams of dried flower or 36 grams of a THC product, however, a provider may certify a patient for more or less than the standard amount.

And to be clear, the amount available for purchase is calculated on a rolling 30-day cycle. That is, the amount that a patient may purchase on any given day is calculated as the certified amount minus the total of all purchases made within the last 30 days. The 30-day cycle is not based on the calendar month.

If you are a Perry Hall resident (with proof of residency) and have at least one of the following conditions diagnosed by a doctor, chiropractor, or medical professional, you qualify:
