Very stress-free process you all have done for me. Highly recommend. I'll be renewing my card through y'all in the future. I appreciate all the work done from your end I'm not tech savvy 😆 
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 Medical Marijuana Card in Boston?
Having a medical marijuana card means you’re following state law and can legally buy, carry, and use cannabis for your condition. Here’s what you need to know to stay protected and avoid any problems.
- You can legally have up to a 60-day supply at home, which your dispensary calculates based on what you buy
- Always carry your card when you have marijuana with you, whether you’re driving, walking, or traveling around Massachusetts
- If police ask about your cannabis, show your card immediately and let them know you’re a registered medical patient
- You can only use marijuana in private locations like your home, never in public parks, sidewalks, or businesses
- Massachusetts dispensaries are the only legal place to buy your medicine, so avoid buying from friends or unlicensed sellers
- Keep your card current by renewing before it expires, or you’ll lose your legal right to possess cannabis
- You can’t drive while impaired or have an open container of marijuana in your car, just like alcohol laws
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.
