I have several qualifying conditions. Does that guarantee that I'll get my Missouri med card?
No. The law doesn’t obligate marijuana doctors in Missouri to approve patients for medical marijuana. Still, our MMJ doctors will most likely certify you if your health could benefit from medical cannabis.
How is the consultation done? Can I have a video call with the doctor?
Yes. Once you book your appointment, we’ll send you a secure link for your video call when the consultation time approaches. You’ll meet with your physician to discuss how medical cannabis could benefit your health–this generally takes 10-15 minutes. After your doctor approves, you’ll receive your certification via email. It’ll also be available from your Quick Med Cards dashboard.
What happens after I'm approved?
Getting your certification is just step one of getting your Missouri medical marijuana card. Next, you must complete your medical card application on the state’s Medical Marijuana Portal (Complia Missouri).
When will I get my med card in the mail?
The Missouri Department of Health & Senior Services doesn’t mail physical cards to patients.
You can download and print your medical card from your patient account after approval, which usually happens within 30 days.
How long is my med card valid for?
Your Missouri medical card will be valid for three (3) days.
I lost/destroyed my med card. How do I ask for a new one?
Your digital medical card will always be available in your patient account on the Complia portal.
Are there other fees I need to pay for?
With Quick Med Cards, your consultation and certification will cost $45 to $149, the lowest in the state. Additionally, your medical card will cost $27.40, payable to the state.
