APPLY FOR YOUR GEORGIA MEDICAL MARIJUANA CARD

Georgia recognizes a specific list of qualifying conditions for the Low THC Oil Registry, including cancer, ALS, Alzheimer’s disease, autism spectrum disorder, Crohn’s disease, epidermolysis bullosa, intractable pain, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, peripheral neuropathy, PTSD, seizure disorders, sickle cell disease, terminal illness, and Tourette syndrome.

You book a telehealth appointment with a Veriheal-affiliated Georgia physician and meet with them for a 10 to 15 minute video call. If approved, the physician electronically submits a signed waiver and physician certification to the Georgia Department of Public Health.

DPH creates your Low THC Oil Registry Card, and a representative from the Office of Vital Records contacts you to pick up your card at a Public Health Office of your choice.

A patient must be a Georgia resident with a valid driver’s license or state ID. The state charges $30 for a five-year registration, which is separate from your Veriheal recommendation fee.

A caregiver must be the parent, guardian, or legal guardian of a patient under 18, or the legal guardian of an adult patient. Caregivers must be approved by the patient’s physician, pass a criminal background check, and pay a $30 registration fee. Registration is valid for five years.

Registered patients may legally possess up to 20 fluid ounces of low-THC cannabis oil, capped at 5% THC. Any other cannabis product or higher concentration remains illegal under state and federal law.

Cultivation of medical cannabis for personal use is illegal in Georgia. Patients must purchase from licensed dispensaries.

Georgia Low THC Oil Registry Cards renew every five years. To renew through Veriheal, schedule a recertification appointment with one of our physicians who can confirm you still qualify. We remind you when renewal is near, and our Customer Service Department can apply a renewal discount.

A Georgia Low THC Oil Registry Card is valid for five years, one of the longest-validity programs in the country.
