Great Experience! Times for Doctor visit was convenient and had a wide range suitable to my schedule. Doctor visit was short and to the point. I opted for the extra fee to do the state's application and was impressed by how fast they were able to get my application submitted. Thanks for your service. 
First-time user. Much easier than the previous company used... Doing it all online and FaceTime is so much more convenient... Not to mention about half the price of the previous company. I highly recommend this company... if they could walk me through it, just about anyone can use this site.

|---|---|---|---|

What Legal Protections Do I Get With a West Virginia Medical Marijuana Card?
Your medical marijuana card in West Virginia gives you legal protection, but you need to know the rules to stay safe. Here’s what the law says about what you can and can’t do with your card.
- You can legally possess up to a 30-day supply of medical marijuana from licensed dispensaries
- Always carry your digital card on your phone when you have marijuana with you (show it to police if they ask)
- You cannot use marijuana in public places or while driving (keep your use at home)
- You cannot take your medical marijuana across state lines, even to legal states
- Your employer can still fire you for failing a drug test, even with a valid card
Follow these rules and your card protects you. Break them and your card won’t help you, so stay within the limits and you’ll be fine.
Do I need a doctor's referral to apply?
No. You do not need a referral from your primary care physician. You can book directly with Elevate Holistics, and our licensed PA physicians will evaluate you themselves.
Can I use my card in other states?
Pennsylvania does not currently offer reciprocity, meaning your PA card will not be accepted at dispensaries in other states. Some states do accept out-of-state cards, so check the laws of your destination before traveling with medical cannabis.
What if I have more than one qualifying condition?
That is fine. You only need one qualifying condition to be certified. However, mentioning all relevant conditions to the physician can be helpful for your overall treatment discussion.
Is my information private?
Yes. All Elevate Holistics telehealth appointments are 100% HIPAA-compliant. Your medical information is protected and is not shared beyond what is required for the state registration process.
What happens after my card expires?
Pennsylvania medical marijuana cards are valid for one year. When your card approaches expiration, you will need to renew your physician certification and update your state registration. Already have a card? Renew your PA MMJ card here.
