In Michigan, medical cannabis has been prescribed for treatment of various conditions, including acute pain, Hepatitis C, HIV/AIDS, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, cancer, PTSD, and seizures.
In 2013, the law allowed adult citizens of Detroit, Ann Arbor, Grand Rapids, Warren, Lansing, Flint, and other municipalities to own 2.5 ounces of cannabis outside and 10 ounces at home. In 2018, Michigan legalized the production and sale of cannabis for recreational use. It is still prohibited to offer marijuana to persons under 21 and to use it in public places.
The program that allows medicinal use of marijuana was initiated in 2008. It has evolved into a secure non-public registry where all patients can enroll to get an MMJ card. Michigan also supports reciprocity and serves cardholders from other states.
What is a renewal of your MMJ card?
Both patients and caregivers must be registered with the Michigan Medical Marijuana Registry Program. Patients should be 18 years, caregivers – 21, to apply for an MMJ card. They need to register with a card provider whose database is HIPAA-compliant. They should also undergo a doctor’s evaluation to certify the use of cannabis for their condition.
MMJ cards are valid for 2 years. It is important to check municipal laws regarding the expiry date of a card. In Ann Arbor, for example, the cardholder will have to undergo a registration process from the beginning if they fail to renew the MMJ card before the expiry date.
