Questions
Can I get an Ohio medical marijuana card online?
Yes. Ohio allows the certifying visit to happen by video for new patients and renewals. The doctor must hold an Ohio medical license.
What do I need for the video visit?
A photo ID, proof that you live in Ohio (your license usually works), a phone or computer with a camera, and a quiet private place.
Is an online certification as valid as an in-person one?
Yes — where Ohio allows telehealth, the certification is the same one an in-office doctor would file.
