How to Renew Your Pennsylvania Medical Marijuana Card
It's easy to renew your medical marijuana card in Pennsylvania. All that is needed is an updated certificate and the renewal fee. You can continue to be a patient for as long as you like after being added to the state's registry.
To buy marijuana at a dispensary in Pennsylvania, your certification must be renewed every 12 months. The state requires a doctor reevaluation to make sure medical marijuana is still appropriate and safe in each specific circumstance.
An email will be sent to you 60 days before your certificate expires reminding you to renew it. Then, you can make an online appointment with any of the licensed medical marijuana doctors at the Sanctuary. It will be similar to your initial medical cannabis evaluation.
Thirty days prior to the payment deadline for your renewal, the Department of Health will also send you an email reminder. After that, you can log into your account to confirm that a legitimate payment method is still stored there. Your card won't expire if you pay the $50 renewal fee within 30 days of receiving this notice.
Your doctor will inquire about your symptoms as well as how you feel during and after using medical marijuana. Based on your experiences, you can broach topics such as dosage and side effects. Your certification will be sent to the state's registry by the doctor. It will instantly connect to your account.
Make sure the address that is listed for you online is correct. As long as your doctor's certificate is current and your payment is accepted, the state will automatically mail you a new card.
