Becoming an Ohio Medical Marijuana PatientÂ
If you are a resident of Ohio and suffer from one of Ohio’s qualifying conditions, you are eligible to become a medical marijuana patient. Locate a medical marijuana card company or physician with a CTR (Certificate to Recommend) to schedule an evaluation. The registration process, cost, and required documentation may vary between providers. Â

Ohio’s Qualifying ConditionsÂ
Under Ohio law, qualifying medical conditions include the following:Â
AIDS, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease, cachexia, cancer, chronic traumatic encephalopathy, Crohn’s disease, epilepsy or another seizure disorder, fibromyalgia, glaucoma, hepatitis C, Huntington’s disease, inflammatory bowel disease, multiple sclerosis, pain that is either chronic and severe or intractable, Parkinson’s disease, positive status for HIV, post- traumatic stress disorder, sickle cell anemia, Spasticity, spinal cord disease or injury, terminal illness, Tourette syndrome, traumatic brain injury, and ulcerative colitis.Â
As of February 2021, the State Medical Board of Ohio determined the following conditions are considered covered by a qualifying condition: arthritis, chronic migraines, and complex regional pain syndrome.Â
Finding a CTR PhysicianÂ
While a comprehensive list of CTR Physicians can be found here; not all CTR Physicians are available to the public and their contact information may be inaccurate. An internet search for an Ohio medical marijuana card company is the best way to locate a CTR Physician. Â
Cost of Becoming a PatientÂ
The cost of obtaining an Ohio Medical Marijuana Card varies by the individual physician or physician group providing the evaluation. The price for this service may range from $50 – $300. After a recommendation is received from a Certifying Physician, a yearly $50 Administrative Fee is applied by the State.Â
Registration Discounts
The State offers a $25 discount on the activation and yearly renewal fee to those who are approved for Veteran or Indigent Status.Â
Veteran or Indigent StatusÂ
Please refer to the following document on how to register with Veteran or Indigent Status.Â
Becoming a CaregiverÂ
The provider or provider’s office who issued the medical marijuana recommendation can register a Caregiver on a Patient’s behalf. The provider will need the Caregiver’s government- issued identification and other demographic information to complete the process. Learn about the Caregiver approval process here.Â

Ohio Medical Marijuana Cards are available digitally after a CTR physician has submitted the required information to the State Registry and the activation fee has been paid. The card will list your name, expiration date of the Recommendation, expiration date of the Card, and a 20-digit ID number.

An image of the card or a printed copy is sufficient for entry into the dispensary department.Â
