Schedule an online appointment through The Sanctuary with one of our certified medical marijuana doctors. Our team will help you understand the process of obtaining a medical marijuana card in Pennsylvania and what steps you need to take.
Meet with one of our physicians online or in-person for your initial evaluation. In this brief consultation, your doctor will determine if you qualify for the medical marijuana program. If approved, your doctor will certify you in the PA Department of Health’s system.
After your doctor certifies you for medical cannabis, you will receive an email confirmation that lists the next steps, such as registering with the state and paying a $50 fee. You will need your PA driver’s license or state ID as well as your current address. You should receive your medical marijuana card in the mail within 7-14 days.

Renewing your medical marijuana card in Pennsylvania is simple. It only requires obtaining an updated certificate by visiting your doctor and paying the renewal fee. Once enrolled in the state’s registry, you can remain a patient as long as you choose to.
Your certification must be renewed every 12 months to purchase cannabis at a dispensary in PA. This interval protects patient safety by requiring a reassessment to ensure medical marijuana remains safe and effective in each individual case.
The process for renewing your medical marijuana card in PA is as follows:
Medical Marijuana Caregivers in Pennsylvania are individuals who register with the state’s medical marijuana program to purchase medical marijuana on behalf of minors, homebound adults, and those who require assistance due to a disability. Only individuals over 21 years old with a valid Pennsylvania driver's license or state-issued ID can become registered caregivers.
You can only enter dispensaries and purchase marijuana as a caregiver if your account is associated with a registered patient. If you serve as the caregiver to an adult, they can link you as their caregiver through their online account to authorize you to purchase cannabis products on their behalf. Minors or adults with disabilities must register with you as their caregiver to become patients.
The Pennsylvania Medical Marijuana Program is overseen by the Pennsylvania Department of Health. Any adult who is a Pennsylvania resident and has a qualifying condition may be eligible for the program. However, they will need to receive a patient certification before visiting a dispensary.
With a medical marijuana ID card, you can purchase up to a 30-day supply of multiple types of cannabis products—topical, edible, and smokable. Recreational cannabis remains illegal in Pennsylvania, and it is also illegal to cultivate marijuana unless the DOH provides explicit authorization.

Pennsylvania does not have a reciprocity agreement with any other state, which means that your medical marijuana card is not valid outside of PA. If you anticipate spending a significant amount of time in another state, you should look into that state’s laws regarding marijuana use. You might also qualify for a temporary medical marijuana license if the state offers it.
No, Pennsylvania is one of 13 states in the U.S. that have only legalized marijuana for medical use. In order to legally purchase and consume cannabis products in Pennsylvania, you will need to receive certification from a medical marijuana doctor on the basis of a qualifying health condition.
