THE PROCESS
How getting a MMJ Card works
Getting a Colorado MMJ Card involves three distinct steps: complete your medical evaluation with Dr. Cohen, submit a separate application and fee to the State Registry, and—once approved—download your card from your Registry account.
New + renewal patients
Your Evaluation
Your appt includes a review of your health, cannabis-related questions, and a Provider Certification. In-person visits are preferred, but online appointments are available when health, travel, or other circumstances make an office visit difficult.
AFTER YOUR APPOINTMENT
Apply with the Registry
After your appointment with Dr. Cohen, you can then log in to (or create) your Colorado Medical Marijuana Registry account, complete the required application, upload any requested documents, and pay the separate State application fee.
THE REGISTRY ISSUES YOUR CARD
Get your MMJ Card
The State Registry—not Dr. Cohen or Holos Health—reviews your application. When approved, the Registry issues your MMJ Card, which you can download and print from your Registry account. The Registry typically only takes 3-5 business days to review/approve applications.
WHO MAY QUALIFY
Colorado residency and a qualifying condition are required.
To be eligible for a Colorado MMJ Card, adult applicants must be Colorado residents, have a valid Colorado driver’s license or state-issued ID, and have a qualifying medical condition.
PATIENTS UNDER 21
Patients under 21 have additional requirements. Depending on their age and prior registration, these include seeing two physicians to get two Provider Certifications, and medical records documenting the qualifying condition. Applicants under 18 must also have a parent or legal guardian complete the application and submit additional documentation.

WHY GET A COLORADO MMJ CARD
Benefits of a Colorado MMJ Card
For eligible Colorado patients, medical registration can provide practical advantages beyond the recreational market. Benefits and limits remain subject to current State law and dispensary policies.
01
Lower medical taxes
Medical cannabis purchases are generally taxed at a lower rate than recreational purchases, though local taxes may vary.
02
Medical-market access
Shop at licensed medical dispensaries and get access to higher potency products intended for registered medical patients.
03
Different purchase allowances
Medical patients may have different purchase allowances for certain product categories, subject to age, product type, and Colorado law.*
04
Access for patients under 21
Qualifying younger patients (and their parents) have legal protection and may access Colorado’s medical program when all age-specific requirements are met.
Purchases above Colorado’s standard medical limits are not an automatic card benefit. Dr. Cohen considers a separate Uniform Certification Form only in limited, medically appropriate circumstances, including certain conditions or qualifying geographic hardship.

MORE THAN A CERTIFICATION
A medical evaluation shaped around your health.
Dr. Cohen brings more than 40 years of traditional and functional medicine experience to each appointment. He considers the whole picture—not only whether you may qualify for the Registry.
What your evaluation includes:
-
Review of your health history and your medical concerns.
-
Discussion of medications, supplements, and relevant risks.
-
Individualized education about cannabis formats and practical considerations.
-
A Provider Certification. The Provider Certification is electronically submitted to the State of CO MMJ Registry. This is the medical document Colorado requires before you can submit your separate MMJ Card application with the Registry.
