Next Steps After Meeting With Your Minneapolis Cannabis Doctor
After we approve your certification, you need to finish the state registration before you can buy from dispensaries. Here’s what happens next and how long each step takes.
- Check your email for the registration link from the Office of Cannabis Management (OCM) within a few days of your approval. This link takes you to the Medical Cannabis Registry portal where you’ll set up your account.
- Log into the Registry portal and complete the enrollment application by uploading a photo of your driver’s license or state ID. Fill out the form carefully since mistakes here slow down your approval.
- Wait about 5-7 business days for the OCM to review and approve your application. You’ll get an email when the state finishes processing your registration.
- Complete the Patient Self-Evaluation form after your approval email arrives. This short questionnaire asks about your condition so the state can track how medical cannabis works for patients.
- Visit any licensed dispensary with just your photo ID once you finish the self-evaluation. The state doesn’t mail physical cards, so dispensary staff will look up your registration in the state system.

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 Minneapolis?
Having your medical marijuana card gives you legal protections that people without cards don’t have under state law. We want to make sure you understand both your rights and your responsibilities so you can use your medicine safely and legally.
- You can possess up to a 30-day supply of cannabis at one time, which your dispensary tracks based on your doctor’s recommendations
- Always keep your valid medical marijuana card with you when you’re transporting or using marijuana
- If law enforcement questions you about cannabis possession, calmly show them your medical marijuana card to verify your patient status
- You cannot drive a vehicle while under the influence of marijuana, even as a medical patient, and doing so can lead to DUI arrest
- Your card only protects you in-state and doesn’t apply in other states, on federal land, or at airports
- Employers can still require drug testing and enforce drug-free workplace policies, which may affect your job even with a valid card
- Using marijuana in public spaces, parking lots, or anywhere tobacco smoking is banned violates state law
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.
