MN: Patient registration for medical marijuana opens Monday

St. Cloud

Registration opens for medical marijuana

Medical marijuana will be legal in Minnesota — for patients with certain conditions — on July 1 and those patients can begin registering for the program Monday.

To begin the registration process, patients need a doctor, nurse practitioner or physician assistant to certify that they have one of the conditions that qualify them to participate in the program. Those conditions include certain cancers, terminal illnesses, glaucoma and seizure disorders. The Minnesota Medical Cannabis site at mn.gov/medicalcannabis has more details.

The first three of the state’s eight medical cannabis clinics are expected to open July 1 in Minneapolis, Eagan and St. Cloud. Other clinics will open later in Rochester, Eden Prairie, St. Paul, Hibbing and Moorhead.

There is a $200 annual registration fee.
