Louisiana Medical Marijuana Card Online: Video Visit

How the online visit works in Louisiana

Check you're eligible
You need to live in Louisiana, be 18 or older (or apply with a guardian), and have a condition on the Louisiana Therapeutic Marijuana Program list.
See a Louisiana-licensed doctor
Meet by video for about 15 minutes. If you qualify, the doctor files your certification.
Take your certification to a dispensary
Louisiana doesn't issue a separate state card. Your doctor's certification is what the dispensary checks.
Buy from a licensed dispensary
No state card to wait for. Bring your card and photo ID to any licensed medical dispensary in Louisiana.

Photo ID
A driver's license or state ID card.
Proof you live in Louisiana
Your license usually covers it. If not, a recent utility bill or lease.
A phone or computer with a camera
Any modern browser works. No app to download.
A quiet, private spot
Your visit is confidential — choose somewhere you can talk freely.
