It’s just like a video call with a friend. You’ll schedule an appointment, and at your chosen time, you’ll connect with a friendly, licensed doctor. They will talk with you about your health to see if medical cannabis is a good fit. The whole thing is private and secure.

It’s pretty simple. You’ll need to have a valid Montana ID, like a driver’s license, and be able to talk about your medical history. Our team will guide you through the short paperwork to make sure everything is in order.

After the doctor gives you a signed certification form, you’ll need to submit an application to the Montana Department of Public Health and Human Services (DPHHS). They will process your application and mail your official card to you. You’ll also get a temporary card by email so you can visit a dispensary sooner.

Having a medical card in Montana comes with some great benefits. For one, you’ll pay a much lower tax rate on your purchases—only 4% compared to the 20% tax on recreational products. Plus, as a patient, you can buy products with a higher THC potency.

Montana’s program includes a number of specific health issues. One of the most common is severe chronic pain, but it also covers conditions like cancer, glaucoma, PTSD, and Crohn’s disease. We have a complete list of qualifying medical conditions on our website.

Registered patients are allowed to purchase and possess up to one ounce of usable cannabis per day, with a maximum of five ounces per month.

Yes, you can. Patients in the Montana program can designate a “provider.” This is a trusted person or a licensed dispensary that can grow cannabis for you and help you get your medicine.

No, your privacy is protected by law. The patient registry is confidential and is not available to the public or law enforcement. Only the DPHHS and licensed dispensaries can verify that you are a registered patient.

There are two main costs. The first is for the evaluation with a doctor. The second is a small application fee that you pay to the state of Montana when you submit your paperwork. At Montana Cannabis Card, we keep our evaluation fees affordable.

This is a very important question. The best advice is to “start low and go slow.” Begin with a very small amount and see how it affects you. The doctor you speak with will also provide recommendations, and the staff at the dispensary are trained to help you find the right products and dosage.

Yes, there’s a wide variety! You can choose from traditional flower, edibles like gummies, tinctures (oils), topical creams, and vape cartridges. Each type works a bit differently, so you can find the one that best suits your lifestyle and needs.

We want to make this process risk-free for you. If, for any reason, the doctor determines that you do not qualify for a medical cannabis certification during your evaluation, we will provide a full refund of our fee.

Renewing your card is a simple process. You’ll need to get a new certification from a doctor and submit a renewal application to the state before your current card expires. We can easily help you with the renewal consultation.
