What are Tennessee's qualifying conditions?
Each state has their own set of “qualifying conditions” and most don’t need medical proof that you have it.

Medical cannabis is not legal in Tennessee. The state does have a program that allows patients with certain conditions to possess high-CBD cannabis oil with a concentration of THC lower than 0.9%. However, the program does not allow the production of the oil in the state, making it nearly inaccessible for patients. The qualifying conditions for the low-THC program are:
- Intractable seizures
- Alzheimer’s disease
- ALS
- Cancer
- Recalcitrant nausea and vomiting
- Inflammatory bowel disease
- Crohn’s disease
- Ulcerative colitis
- Epilepsy or seizure
- Multiple sclerosis
- Parkinson’s disease
- Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
- Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)
- Sickle cell disease

What to expect after you’re approved.

In most states, the medical cannabis program is overseen by either the state’s department of health or a cannabis control board. These agencies usually maintain the state’s list of qualifying medical conditions as well. If your condition isn’t listed, you may be able to petition the agency to have it added. It also may be worth reaching out to your local representatives in the state legislature for help.

Once medical cannabis is legalized in Tennessee, your ability to use your med card in other states will depend 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.
Tennessee will establish rules for med card registration once medical marijuana is legalized in the state. Many states allow patients to register with a passport, military ID, or a tribal ID. In some cases, other documentation, like utility bills, a lease, bank statements, or other government documents are also sufficient for a patient to register.
