NuggMD offers low-cost Missouri medical cannabis evaluations, and there’s no risk because you’re only billed if you’re approved for medical cannabis.

Once approved, your physician will enter your certification into the system within 24 to 48 hours, but Amendment 2 allows the state to take up to 30 days to process your application. The Department has been very fast with applications up to this point. Some applicants have received their new patient identification cards via email within 48 hours. Others take longer.

With NuggMD, you are ONLY charged for your evaluation if you are approved. If you start the sign up process and complete payment, but then change your mind, there will be a small $10 charge deducted from your refund to cover the payment processing. 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@www.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.
