If you’re in New York and interested in getting medical marijuana, well, most probably you have tried using Cannabis for quite some time or tried it once for medical purposes or just for leisure. Medical Marijuana has been in a whirlwind process of being legalized in some states in the United States. Now, people in different states especially in New York are interested in becoming legal and registered patients to get a Medical Marijuana Card under New York’s Medical Marijuana Laws.
“Questions like how to get the card?” and “Is it a difficult process?” are surely clouding up your mind. The thing is, back then, it’s really difficult to acquire the card but due to chronic pain being added to the list of conditions to become a legal patient to use Marijuana, it has been made easier to qualify and get a Marijuana card in New York.
Getting the card legally would require you to have a doctor’s recommendation. Here’s a guide on how to get the card properly.
Next, you need to have a written consent or certification from a registered doctor. There are 800 doctors in New York that are allowed and registered to give the certificate. You can visit them personally or consult with them online but make sure that they’re authorized.
It is actually good to visit your doctor personally and seek advice if medical marijuana will help you with your condition; if your physician concludes that it would be appropriate for you to try medical marijuana. Make sure that your doctor is registered in the New York State Department of Health’s Medical Marijuana Program for him/her to issue the certificate and if not, your doctor can refer you to other doctors that are in the same program. Make sure to have all your details and medical records submitted to the authorized doctor that will give you the certificate.
However, it’s hard to find medical marijuana doctors that are registered in the program in NY since the Department of Health in the state doesn’t publicize the doctors’ information. This makes the telehealth or getting the certification online easier and more efficient for a lot of patients.
The requirements for obtaining New York’s Medical Marijuana Card is to have one considered condition like Cancer, HIV positive status, AIDS, Parkinson’s Disease, Epilepsy, Lou Gehrig’s Disease (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis), Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Multiple Sclerosis, Spasticity, Huntington’s Disease, Neuropathies and Chronic disease.
