5 Steps to Obtaining a Medical Marijuana Prescription in Houston

4. Medical Records: Gather your medical records to help your doctor assess your situation.
5. Physician Consultation: Meet with a registered physician to discuss if medical marijuana is a suitable treatment option for you.

Important Points to Remember for Houston Residents

1. Insurance Coverage: Currently, medical marijuana treatments are not covered by health insurance plans due to federal regulations.
2. Patient Identification: While not required by the state, TXMMD will provide you with a Medical Marijuana Card for internal use. This card can help quickly identify you as a registered patient within our system.

**Please note: Because marijuana is still federally illegal, we are unable to accept/work with insurance companies for appointment payment.

*Please also note: TXMMD gives all of our patients a Medical Marijuana Card, but this card is for internal use that identify you as our patient and is not required by the Compassionate Use Registry of Texas.
