Yes. PTSD is recognized as a qualifying condition for a medical marijuana card in just about every state with a medical marijuana program.
We can screen you for PTSD based on the DSM-5 (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) via a brief visit with a MMJ specialist and assist you with your questionnaire.
No. If you want to be screened for PTSD, the PTSD screening visit is the first part of the process. You must also visit with a medical provider for a medical marijuana card approval.
If you have them available, you can upload medical records showing your clinical condition.
There are four steps to be evaluated for PTSD:
1. Book a PTSD screening appointment
2. Pay online
3. Sign an Online Consent Form (a link will be emailed to you upon payment)
4. A MMJ specialist will visit with you at your appointment time.
*IMPORTANT* A MMJ specialist cannot visit with you until a correct consent form is signed AND your payment is made in full. Please note each appointment type has it's own unique consent form that MUST be signed by you BEFORE your appointment.
It depends. The decision whether you need additional records is based on the medical provider's clinical judgement. In most cases records under 12 months are consider recent. An ARCannabisClinic MMJ specialist can speak to you about your unique situation.
We have several patients who have PTSD, but do not want to ask or wait for records to come in from their existing providers. We are happy to re-screen you for PTSD.
Our PTSD Evaluation Visit, priced at $99, quickly checks your medical records on the same day. This initial step is crucial but different from the MMJ card screening and approval. If our doctor can't recommend you for a medical card based on this screening, you're fully refunded for PTSD Evaluation Visit. Remember, this isn't the MMJ approval visit—it's a necessary first step. So don't wait, book an appointment today!
