WHAT IS A CANNABIS MEDICAL LETTER?

A cannabis medical letter is a state-compliant document signed by your provider to verify lawful medical cannabis use. These letters are designed to explain that cannabis is a necessary part of your treatment for your health condition under the guidance of your Veriheal physician.

Your letter includes confirmation from your physician notifying your parole officer that your cannabis use is a legal, doctor-supervised medical treatment for a specific condition and respectfully asks the recipient to consider this medical context when making any legal decision. As such, these letters can be used to support parole criteria, confirm possession rights, and assist with employment applications.

DOCUMENTATION DESIGNED TO PROTECT YOU

Even after they get their medical marijuana cards, patients are commonly denied housing, jobs, and social services. Others still are penalized for possessing cannabis or accused of violating their parole. 

At Veriheal, we know that the challenges that surround cannabis don’t end when you get your medical card. Working with our team of trusted physicians, we’ll help you tackle legal challenges with state-compliant and physician-signed letters tailored to your needs. These letters are designed with your protection in mind. Whether you’re applying for employment or want to feel safer transporting your cannabis, we’ll help make sure you have uncompromised access to the medicine you rely on. 

If you don’t already have a medical card in your state, we’ll bundle your certification with your state-compliant letter for free, giving you the peace of mind to use your medicine safely and legally at no extra cost.

YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED

You’ve tried this before. You’ve advocated for yourself, only to be met with judgment, prejudice, and even more questions than when you started. That confusion ends now.

Getting your cannabis medical letter through Veriheal not only provides you with legal documentation to support your medical cannabis use, but it’s your go-to resource for explaining your needs to others, including employers, landlords, case workers, and law enforcement.

By explaining why cannabis is crucial to your treatment routine, your medical letter demonstrates that you’re using cannabis legally and medicinally. As a result, this letter acts as a first line of defense against legal or administrative hurdles and may help reduce those hurdles when you’re applying for employment, working with law enforcement, or facing other legal challenges.

A LEGAL SERVICE THAT MEETS YOUR UNIQUE NEEDS

A cannabis medical letter may just be the peace of mind you’re looking for. And the best part is: these letters aren’t one size fits all. Instead, they’re designed to help you navigate the unique obstacles you’ve encountered when using medical cannabis. 

You may benefit from a cannabis medical letter if you are:

  • Facing legal action where your cannabis use needs explanation or justification
  • Applying for employment or housing and want official documentation supporting your cannabis use
  • Need proof that you’re legally allowed to carry cannabis in your state
  • Working with a parole officer and want to establish credibility and medical backing for your cannabis treatment plan

Frequently Asked Questions

To get a cannabis medical letter, select the service the best fits your needs from the menu above. If you are already a medical cannabis patient in the state, the doctor will review your medical history and send you your letter. If you are not a medical cannabis patient yet, you’ll meet with your doctor to complete the medical card process and receive your official letter for free with your medical card.
A cannabis medical letter for your employer is a professional document you can use to provide context for HR conversations or a drug test. In this letter, your physician proves to your employer that you are a legal medical cannabis patient under state law. However, the letter is for informational purposes and does not override company policy or serve as a formal request for legal accommodation.
A medical letter for possession while driving clarifies that you can legally have cannabis in your car as a medical cannabis patient, as long as it is in a sealed container. However, this letter does not prevent a DUI charge if you are driving while impaired.
A medical cannabis letter may protect you from possession charges, as long as the cannabis you’re carrying is in a container suitable for the laws in your state. The letter explains that you are allowed to transport your prescribed amount of cannabis from the dispensary to your residence. However, this letter is not a legal defense and does not prevent a DUI charge if you are impaired.
A medical cannabis letter can be used during a police stop to confirm that medical cannabis is a necessary part of your treatment for your health condition, which could help your case if you’re found possessing cannabis. However, depending on your state laws, keep in mind that this letter does not provide immunity from federal law or local rules restricting cannabis use.
A medical marijuana letter serves as a tool to support a conversation with your parole officer about your medical needs, but it does not guarantee an exemption from parole rules. Rather, it informs the officer that you’re using it as a physician-supervised treatment, not for recreational purposes.
