Medical Marijuana Card Help in Columbus, OH

Franklin County residents qualify by having one of Ohio's approved medical conditions and completing a certification visit with a CTR-licensed physician. Green Bridge handles the certification by secure telehealth — book online, meet your physician by video, and if approved, your recommendation is filed in the Ohio Medical Marijuana Registry. Most Columbus-area patients are done in under 30 minutes.

Ohio voters legalized adult-use in November 2023 and sales started August 2024, but the medical card still wins. Medical patients avoid the 10% adult-use excise tax, get higher possession limits (~90-day supply vs 2.5oz recreational), and have access to higher-potency products not sold to recreational customers. For regular patients, the certification fee pays for itself in tax savings within weeks.

Yes. As long as you're physically located in Ohio during your appointment, you can book from Columbus, Dublin, Westerville, Worthington, Grove City, Hilliard, Reynoldsburg, Gahanna, or anywhere in central Ohio.

Once certified and registered, you can purchase from any licensed Ohio dispensary. Columbus has Nar Reserve, The Botanist, Trulieve, The Landing, Mother Earth's, Terrasana, and additional options across the city and surrounding Franklin County.

Green Bridge charges $125 for new Ohio patient certifications and $50 for renewals. The Ohio Department of Commerce state card fee is currently essentially $0 since the May 2024 update.

Ohio's qualifying conditions include cancer, chronic pain, PTSD, anxiety disorders, autism spectrum disorder, ALS, Crohn's disease, epilepsy, glaucoma, hepatitis C, HIV/AIDS, inflammatory bowel disease, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, sickle cell anemia, spinal cord injury, terminal illness, Tourette syndrome, traumatic brain injury, and ulcerative colitis.
