What is the Florida Medical Marijuana Use Registry?

The Florida Department of Health’s Office of Medical Marijuana Use (OMMU) is the regulatory agency responsible for overseeing Florida’s medical marijuana program. The OMMU is responsible for issuing medical marijuana cards to qualifying patients, as well as licensing and regulating medical marijuana treatment centers (MMTCs) throughout the state.

Patients who are interested in obtaining a medical marijuana card in Florida must apply through the OMMU. The OMMU reviews each application to determine if the patient meets the qualifying conditions for medical marijuana use, and if approved, issues the patient a medical marijuana card.

The OMMU also maintains a patient registry that contains information about patients who are authorized to use medical marijuana in the state of Florida. This registry is used by law enforcement agencies to verify the status of a patient’s medical marijuana card.

In addition to patient registration and regulation of MMTCs, the OMMU also provides educational resources and guidance to patients, physicians, and caregivers. They offer information on the various forms of medical marijuana available, dosage recommendations, and potential side effects.

Overall, the Florida Department of Health’s Office of Medical Marijuana Use plays a critical role in regulating and ensuring the safety of the medical marijuana program in the state of Florida, while also providing resources and guidance to patients and healthcare professionals.
