Find Out If You Qualify First and foremost, you need to find out whether you qualify for the program. To be a valid candidate, you have to be at least 18 years of age, a resident of Missouri, and have a qualifying condition confirmed by Medical Marijuana Doctors in Missouri. Applicants who are minors only qualify if they are authorized or have a parent/legal guardian acting as caregivers. When it comes to showing proof of residency, you have a choice to either use your valid Missouri driver’s license or your state-issued identity card. We recommend that you use either one of those, but you can also use a Missouri vehicle registration or a recent Missouri utility bill. Whether they accept your proof of residency is entirely up to them, so feel free to inquire first before you proceed. Ensure to check whether your condition is on the qualifying list of conditions for getting Medical Marijuana Cards in Missouri.

The Standard Physician Certification Form is what is mainly required. However, if you need a monthly dosage that is higher than the standard dosage, you will be required to fill the Alternative Physician Certification Form. Then you must submit both these forms after being completed by two separate doctors. If the recommended amounts are different, you will be entitled to a lower dosage. Minors are required to fill in a parent or legal guardian consent form. 3. Complete State Application Within 30 days of receiving your physician's recommendation, make your state application. The Department of Health will complete the evaluation within 30days of receiving your application. If any corrections are required regarding your application, you will be notified by the DOH through email.
