Can I use my Florida medical marijuana card in another state?
Maybe. Some States will recognize a medical marijuana card from another State. You will need to check with that State concerning their rules and regulations concerning marijuana. However, the State of Florida only recognizes its own medical marijuana card and out of State medical marijuana cards are not valid.
Will my insurance cover this?
No. Unfortunately, medical insurance, in the State of Florida, does not cover any kind of medical marijuana or CBD treatments. We do offer a discount to assist our AMAZING established Primary Care Patients with the consultation fees and follow-up visits. We also offer additional discounts, that you may be eligible for. Contact our Specialty Coordinator, Liz for additional information.
It is up to the doctor to approve you, so if you have seen a physician in the past for your condition, it helps to have your medical records for the same-day doctor’s approval. We have a medical release form you can fill out and sign, we can send it to your doctor’s office to pull your records, if needed. Schedule a FREE phone consultation with Liz to hear more information.
