Get Your Michigan Medical Marijuana Card

A Michigan medical marijuana card may help eligible patients save money on cannabis, depending on the dispensary, product, and current prices. Medical marijuana purchases are subject to Michigan's 6% sales tax, while adult-use purchases are subject to a 10% marijuana excise tax plus the 6% sales tax.

Using these prices, here is an estimated cost for 1 ounce (28 grams):

Medical cannabis

• Product: $7.50 × 28 grams = $210.00
• 6% sales tax: $12.60
• Total: $222.60

Adult-use cannabis

• Product: $15 × 28 grams = $420.00
• 10% marijuana excise tax: $42.00
• 6% sales tax: $27.72
• Total: $489.72

Based on these prices, a medical patient could save approximately $267.12 per ounce compared with the adult-use purchase.

If you made one similar 28-gram purchase each month, the estimated savings would be approximately $3,205.44 per year.

Keep in mind that these are example savings based on prices listed by one dispensary. Actual costs can vary based on the product, dispensary, discounts, availability, and current menu prices. Dispensary menus can change frequently, so check the current price before purchasing.

The Michigan medical card comes with more advantages beyond saving money. Here are some reasons to get an MMJ card even when recreational cannabis is available. As a cardholder, you can:

• • Purchase more potent, medical-grade cannabis products.
  • Access medical marijuana at any age, unlike recreational cannabis, which requires users to be 21 and older.
  • Receive expert guidance from healthcare professionals to ensure a precise, personalized treatment plan.
