What is a Medical Marijuana Card?

How do I apply for a Medical Marijuana Card in Utah?
The application process involves several steps:

Apply through the Utah Department of Health: After receiving a recommendation from your QMP, complete the application process on the Utah Department of Health’s online portal. This includes submitting the recommendation, your personal information, and paying the application fee.
Receive Your Card: Once your application is approved, you will receive your medical marijuana card, allowing you to purchase medical cannabis from licensed pharmacies in Utah.

The processing time can vary, but most applicants receive their medical marijuana card within 15 business days from the date their application is submitted. It's important to ensure all information is accurately provided to avoid any delays.
