No. Unfortunately, you must have a qualifying condition to get a medical marijuana card in Georgia.

Having a low-THC oil registry card is the only way for Georgia residents to possess low-THC cannabis oil in the state legally. Registered patients also enjoy a range of benefits and protections not available to consumers without a medical card.

NuggMD offers low-cost, risk-free Georgia medical cannabis evaluations, and you only pay if you’re approved for medical cannabis. After the evaluation, medical cannabis patients are also responsible for Georgia’s $30 state registration fee.

Health insurance won’t cover the cost of your medical marijuana products because cannabis is still considered illegal under federal law. This may change in the future if the federal government legalizes cannabis.

While your evaluation through NuggMD is fast and easy, it takes the state approximately three weeks before your medical marijuana card will be mailed to your home or ready for pickup. 

With NuggMD, you are only charged for your evaluation if you are approved. We believe everyone deserves access to a qualified medical cannabis doctor, and the cost of an evaluation shouldn’t be a barrier.

You’ll only be charged if you’re approved for your medical marijuana certification. If not, your evaluation is free! If you sign up and pay for your evaluation, but then cancel before your evaluation, there is a small $10 fee for the payment processing. You can also change your mind after your evaluation if you wish and request a refund, but you must do so before your certification has been submitted to the state. Once you’ve been certified, a refund for services will no longer be available. Please send an email to support@nuggmd.com with the subject line “Refund Request” and a brief description of your issue. Patients won’t receive a refund for failure to follow through with their certification process once the practitioner completes the certification requirements. It is the patient’s responsibility to complete their certification. If you’re stuck or having trouble completing your certification, please reach out to customer service and our agents will help you through the process. We want to make sure you’re 100% satisfied with your purchase being that you, the customer, are the most important thing to us! Once a refund has been initiated, please allow 3-5 business days for the funds to transfer back to the card you used for the transaction. A refund is no longer available more than 30 days after the date of your evaluation. If any issues arise, please feel free to reach back out for further assistance.

Absolutely. You have the right to see any Georgia MD or DO to get your medical marijuana renewal evaluation. All NuggMD practitioners are licensed in the state for which they provide evaluations and have acquired all state-required cannabis training and certifications.

This depends on the state to which you’re traveling. Each state has different rules regarding reciprocity, and some don’t allow it at all. Check with your destination state to learn more.

Georgia allows out-of-state medical cannabis patients to purchase low-THC oil if they have a valid registration card from another state that allows the possession of the same types of products offered in Georgia and have been in the state for less than 45 days. After that, Georgia cannabis laws dictate you’ll need to apply for a Georgia medical marijuana card.
