Get Your Arkansas Medical Marijuana Card

Getting an Arkansas medical marijuana card involves a physician evaluation, a state application, and approval from the Arkansas Department of Health. The process is as follows:

• • Consult with an Arkansas-licensed physician to determine whether you have a qualifying medical condition. First-time patients must complete an in-person evaluation, while eligible renewing patients can complete recertification through telehealth.
  • If the physician determines that you qualify, they will complete and sign the Physician Written Certification required for your application.
  • Submit your application, Physician Written Certification, a valid Arkansas-issued driver’s license or state ID, and $50 application fee to the Arkansas Department of Health.
  • Allow up to 14 days for ADH to process your application after receiving your application and payment.
  • If approved, you can print your state-issued Arkansas medical marijuana card through your ADH account and use it at licensed Arkansas dispensaries.

Following these steps can help you complete the Arkansas medical marijuana card application process and access medical marijuana legally if approved.

The consultation with our certified medical marijuana doctor is quick and effortless. Beforehand, you need to fill out the information form, pick a convenient consultation time, and register an account with Quick Med Cards.

The appointment usually takes 10 to 15 minutes. If the physician approves your certification, you’ll receive an email confirmation. You can also access and download your signed certification from your Quick Med Cards account.

The doctor consultation costs $149. Our financing option lets you book an appointment for as little as $47, making it easier to manage the cost. The fee includes your consultation with a medical marijuana doctor in Arkansas and your official marijuana certification if you’re approved.
