What the registry does

  • Records that you’re a registered patient and which physician recommended you.
  • Issues your registry card, which you show with a photo ID at licensed dispensaries.
  • Tracks when your registration expires and lets you renew.

Registry information that identifies you is confidential under Ohio law and is not a public record.

Activating your registration

  1. After your visit, your physician submits your registration.
  2. Watch the email address you gave your physician for a message from the registry with an activation link.
  3. Click the link, review your details and accept the legal statement.
  4. Your card is then ready to download from your profile.

Renewing each year

Your registration lasts one year. Get a new recommendation from your physician, then sign in and click Renew Card. You can renew up to 30 days before it expires. Full renewal guide.
