Is my information public or shared with anyone?

The Florida Medical Marijuana Registry takes patient privacy very seriously and has strict guidelines in place to protect patient information. When a patient registers for a medical marijuana card, they are required to provide personal information such as their name, address, date of birth, and qualifying medical condition. This information is used to verify the patient’s eligibility for a medical marijuana card and is stored in a secure database.

The registry is maintained by the Florida Department of Health’s Office of Medical Marijuana Use (OMMU) and is only accessible by authorized personnel, including physicians, law enforcement officers, and medical marijuana treatment center staff. Patient information is not shared with third parties except as required by law, such as in response to a court order or subpoena.

Patients are also protected by Florida’s medical marijuana confidentiality laws, which prohibit the disclosure of patient information except in limited circumstances. For example, medical marijuana treatment centers are only permitted to disclose patient information to the patient or their designated caregiver, or as necessary to process the patient’s medical marijuana orders.

Overall, the Florida Medical Marijuana Registry is designed to protect patient privacy while providing a safe and regulated system for accessing medical marijuana. Patients can feel confident that their personal information is secure and protected under the state’s strict privacy laws.
