Under Texas State law, the Compassionate Use Program is limited to Texas patients with the following conditions:

• Epilepsy
• Post-traumatic stress disorder (for veterans)
• Chronic Pain that is normally treated by opioids
• Seizure disorders
• Multiple sclerosis
• Spasticity
• Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
• Autism
• Ataxia
• Dementia
• Motor neuron disease
• Spinal muscular atrophy
• Friedreich’s ataxia
• Charcot Marie Tooth disorder
• Huntington’s disease
• Terminal and non-terminal cancer
• Parkinson’s Disease
• Neuropathy
• An incurable neurodegenerative disease
• Any condition that has been approved by the Health & Human Services Commission for research purposes

Once you are approved, the recommending physician will register you with CURT, the Compassionate Use Registry of Texas. The state will process your application and dispensaries will be able to look you up in their system and dispense your prescription accordingly.

Other than a Veriheal practitioner’s approval for medical marijuana use, you must be a Texas resident with a valid ID, and you must be at least 18 years old. If you are under 18, you’ll need a parent, legal guardian, or primary caregiver’s consent to get your medical marijuana card.

Getting a West Virginia medical marijuana card with Veriheal costs a total of $199. Your $199 fee with Veriheal covers your consultation fee, physician copay, and the medical evaluation for your recommendation, with financing options. The state does not require a fee to register your medical marijuana card.

There is no formal process for becoming a caregiver in Texas. Patients who need help from a caregiver or legal guardian to obtain or use medicinal cannabis may have their medical marijuana prescriptions filled and supplied. If a patient is under 18 years of age, their caregiver/guardian can go into any of the licensed dispensaries in Texas and fill the physician’s prescription for medical cannabis. The caregiver/legal guardian will have to provide the following information:

• Drivers License/ID
• Patient’s Last Name
• Patient’s Date of Birth
• Last 5 digits of the patient’s social security number

Currently, on behalf of a patient or their legal guardian, only social workers and nurses are permitted to produce marijuana products.

Your specific possession limits are set by your prescribing physician. Texas law only allows marijuana products with a THC content of 0.5% or lower. Smoking low-THC cannabis is prohibited.

Cultivation of medical cannabis for personal use is illegal in Texas. Only controlled agencies are permitted to grow medical cannabis.

To renew your Texas medical marijuana card through Veriheal, you’ll need to schedule a renewal appointment with one of our physicians. They can confirm that you still need medical cannabis for your qualifying condition and help you with the renewal process. We will remind you when it’s almost time for your renewal appointment, or you can reach out to our Customer Service Department so we can assist you and apply a renewal discount for you.

A medical marijuana card in Texas is valid for one year.
