How to Receive a Medical Marijuana card in Oklahoma?

The modern history of Oklahoma with cannabis began in April 2015, as House Bill 2154 was signed in law by former Governor Mary Fallin, which enabled clinical CBD trials. For the first time in this state House Bill 2835, CBD clinical trials would develop to people over the age of 18. This bill was signed in May 2016 by Gov. Fallin.

As the efforts of the CBD clinical trial began, as early as the spring of 2014 Oklahomans was pushing for medical access. In 2014, Setbacks made progress, but by 2016, State Question 788 was qualified. In June 2018 the public voted on medical marijuana and State Question 788, despite there was serious opposition.

How Is the Medical Marijuana Application Process?

On 26 June 2018 Oklahoma voted for medical marijuana, granted more than 145,000 patient and caregiver licenses, since that time. Unlike other States, the applicant does not have a "qualifying condition" to approve. Patient licenses are applicable for up to 2 years.

Information required for applying a patient’s license -

• Full name

• Residential and mailing address

• Your birth date

• Your contact details, including your telephone and email address

• Information and recommendation from your doctor

• Your signature must be dated 30 days from the date of request

• A recent digital photo (colored) showing your head and shoulder in front of a white and off-white background

Please remember that for regular state licenses will be approved for only Oklahoma residents, although to visit patients from other States temporary permits are available. Regular state license applicants must demonstrate that they are resident by providing a valid driver's license, electricity bills or other accepted documents.

After Application Submission

All submitted applications are reviewed by the OMMA. If all requirements are fulfilled, the OMMA will issue your license with an approval letter. Within the following 14 days after submission your card will be mailed to your address.

An email is sent to uncompleted applications detailing why the application is incomplete. To make the necessary corrections, you can login again your account.

When your application is refused by the Department, a refusal letter will be received stating why your application was refused within 14 days of the submission date.

You Can Include Your Caregiver if Required

The people who need assistance of caregivers in their treatment are granted a license for the caregivers. You can obtain this documentation by completing the Recommendation form for adult patient physicists. You can use your OMMA account to access the form on line. One caregiver is permitted at any time.

Conditions Required for Medical Cannabis Treatment Qualification

In Oklahoma, unlike other states, there is no list of qualification conditions – which makes it quite unique and unrestricted.

The initiative that legalized medical cannabis or marijuana, (Question 788 of Oklahoma), states, “There are no qualifying conditions. A medical marijuana license must be recommended according to the accepted standards a reasonable and prudent physician would follow when recommending or approving any medication. No physician may be unduly stigmatized or harassed for signing a medical marijuana license application.”

Although in Oklahoma there are no conditions to qualify, you still need to be able to demonstrate the benefits of cannabis use. Be sure that documents showing your medical needs are available during your visit to the doctor. Included are:

• Detailed of patients like records and charts

• Physical therapy records

• Current prescriptions

• All details of applicant’s hospital visits

• Results of medical tests

Once the applicants have been approved by their doctor, they must apply via the state online system. Payments are collected through omma.ok.gov. For the registration, applicants must use a legitimate e-mail address to receive notifications.
