In January 2022, New York state dropped the requirement that patients must have particular conditions to get medical cards. Physicians are now able to prescribe medical cannabis for any condition if they feel the patient may benefit from its use.
Once you are approved by a licensed New York medical marijuana doctor, you can use your Registry ID directly at any dispensing site. Simply present your certification alongside valid government-issued identification to purchase medical cannabis products. If you prefer to have a physical card, you can request your NY medical marijuana card online from the New York DOH and will likely receive in within one week.
Along with a physician’s recommendation, a patient must prove they are a New York resident with a valid driver’s license or state identification card.
