What a medical marijuana card actually costs
Two separate charges make up the cost of a card: the physician evaluation, which you pay us, and your state's registration fee, which you pay the state. Here is both, for every state we serve — no estimates and no bundled totals.
Evaluation and state fees, by state
Evaluation fees cover your video visit with a physician licensed in your state. State fees are set by the program, charged by the program, and paid directly to it.

| Texas | $130 | $0 | $130 | Same day to 24 hours |
| Georgia | $94 | $33.75 | $94 | 24 to 48 hours |
| Pennsylvania | $134 | $50 | $134 | 7 to 14 days for card delivery |
| West Virginia | $124 | $50 | $124 | 24 to 48 hours for certification |

Texas runs the Compassionate Use Program: eligible patients receive a low-THC cannabis prescription entered into CURT rather than a card, and the state charges no patient registry fee. Oklahoma, Missouri, Minnesota, West Virginia and Ohio state charges are described in the state notes below and on each state page.
What your evaluation fee covers
- Your scheduled video evaluation with a physician licensed in your state.
- The physician's review of your health history and your qualifying condition.
- Your certification paperwork, or a low-THC cannabis prescription entered into CURT if you live in Texas.
- Access to your patient portal, where you can reschedule or ask for records.
- Evaluation fee paid at booking, with a 100% refund of the evaluation fee if the physician does not approve you.
What it does not cover
- State registration or ID card fees, which are paid directly to your state's program.
- Cannabis products, which you buy separately at a licensed dispensary or pharmacy.
- Optional extras such as a Missouri cultivation endorsement or a caregiver application.
- Anything your state charges after your first year, such as renewal fees.
If the physician does not approve you, the evaluation fee comes back
Approval is a medical decision and is never guaranteed. If the evaluating physician determines you do not qualify, we refund your evaluation fee in full — the state fee is the program's own charge and follows the program's refund rules.

These are the program charges in each state we serve, in the program's own terms. They sit outside the evaluation fee and are paid to the state.
Texas
$0Texas does not charge a patient registry fee. Your physician enters your prescription directly into CURT after approval.
Georgia
$33.75Georgia charges a $30 registry fee plus a $3.75 online processing fee, paid directly to the state after your physician certifies you.
Pennsylvania
$50Pennsylvania charges a $50 patient registry fee, paid directly to the state when you submit your application.
West Virginia

Pay the fee directly to OMC following its instructions; Quick Medical Cards does not collect or control it. A financial-hardship fee waiver may be available, subject to OMC approval. This government fee is separate from the Quick Medical Cards physician evaluation fee.
Official West Virginia fee guidance →New York

Missouri
$28.92Missouri DHSS / Division of Cannabis Regulation lists a $28.92 patient ID card application fee for July 1, 2026–June 30, 2027, paid directly to the state when you submit your application. Patient ID cards are valid for three years; the same schedule lists $28.92 for renewal. Optional patient cultivation authorization costs $57.83 separately and is not part of the basic patient fee. The schedule does not specify an additional patient payment-processing surcharge; confirm any payment charges in the state portal. These government costs are separate from the Quick Medical Cards physician evaluation fee.
Official Missouri fee guidance →Minnesota
$0Minnesota has eliminated the annual state Medical Cannabis Program enrollment fee. There is no annual state enrollment fee; the Quick Medical Cards physician evaluation fee, dispensary products and any other services remain separate costs.
Official Minnesota fee guidance →Ohio
See DCC guidanceAfter your physician submits your recommendation, follow the Ohio Division of Cannabis Control (DCC) registry instructions to complete registration and access your digital patient card. Confirm any current registration charge in the official registry; it is separate from the Quick Medical Cards evaluation fee.
Official Ohio fee guidance →Oklahoma

These costs are separate from the Quick Medical Cards physician evaluation charge.
Official Oklahoma fee guidance →Cost questions patients ask us
Why do evaluation fees differ by state?
Physician licensing, malpractice costs and program rules differ by state, so the evaluation fee is set for each state rather than one national price. The price for your state is shown above and on your state page.
Do I pay the state fee to Quick Medical Cards?
No. State registration and ID card fees are paid directly to your state program. We show them separately so you know the full cost before you apply, and we never add them to your evaluation charge.
What happens if the physician does not approve me?
Your evaluation fee is refunded in full. Physician approval is never guaranteed, and the evaluating physician makes that decision on clinical grounds alone.
Is there a hidden or recurring charge?
No. You pay the one-time evaluation fee for your visit. Renewals a year later are a new evaluation at the same published price for your state, and state renewal fees are charged by your state, not by us.
Can I pay in installments?
The evaluation is a single payment at checkout. If cost is the reason you are hesitating, contact our support team before you book — we would rather tell you the real total than surprise you later.
Plan your cost by state
Where we have written one, a state cost guide breaks down the evaluation, the registry fee and the renewal charge in order. Otherwise your state page carries the same figures.
