What medical documentation is required for a MMIC?
You must provide written documentation completed by your physician that states that you have been diagnosed with a serious medical condition and that the medical use of marijuana is appropriate. (This documentation will be returned to the applicant during your appointment.) The California Department of Health Services offers the use of the Written Documentation of Patient’s Medical Records Form (CDPH 9044 Form) as a convenience. Your physician will be contacted to confirm that the medical documentation submitted by the applicant is a true and correct copy of documentation in your medical record in the physician’s office. It is the applicant’s responsibility to ensure that an Authorized Release of Medical Information is on file with their medical provider.
