Cover the Pennsylvania Medical Marijuana Card Fee
You may manually waive the medical marijuana card Pennsylvania fee if you participate in qualifying state assistance programs
The annual $50 State Fee for your Pennsylvania medical marijuana card can be paid up to 30 days before the one year anniversary of when you last paid. This is usually around the same date as the printed expiration date on your card.
This fee helps the state run the program for medical marijuana in PA and there is the option to waive it for those receiving Medicaid, WIC, SNAP, or PACE.
To pay/waive the state fee, log in to your state portal and click "Make a Payment" in the menu. If the page displays "No payment is due at this time" in red, you don't owe any fees. Otherwise, follow the instructions to waive or pay the state fee.
While logged in, click "Profile Settings" in the menu and scroll down to ensure your address is up-to-date for the card to be sent to. Please note that this is the only way to change your mailing address on the portal. The physician cannot edit this information and the address does not sync up with your DMV information.
For any issues logging into the state portal, call the PA Medical Marijuana Program Helpdesk at 888-733-5595 (Open 7am - 9pm - 7 days a week).
