Lansing residents follow Michigan's two-step MMMP pathway — telehealth visit with a Michigan-licensed physician, then pay the $40 state fee at the MMMP patient portal. From Downtown Lansing and Old Town to REO Town and the South Side, every step happens from home.
Book a real-time video visit with a Michigan-licensed physician through this platform. The physician reviews your medical history against Michigan's qualifying conditions under the Michigan Medical Marihuana Act, administered by the Cannabis Regulatory Agency (CRA). If you have a qualifying condition, the physician certifies you directly through the MMMP system. When the physician certifies online, same-day CRA approval is possible — the approval email serves as a temporary card valid for up to 10 days while your physical card is mailed.
After physician certification, pay the $40 MMMP registry fee directly to the state at the MMMP patient portal. This fee is entirely separate from the clinic consultation fee and goes directly to Michigan's CRA. Your 2-year registry card is mailed to your address. With your card, purchase at any Michigan-licensed provisioning center statewide and enjoy exemption from Michigan's 10% adult-use cannabis excise tax.
Whether you're in Downtown Lansing, Old Town, REO Town, the South Side, Eastside, or anywhere across Ingham County — your Michigan-licensed physician is a real-time video call away.
Direct answers sourced from Michigan CRA guidance for Lansing residents navigating the MMMP.
Lansing is Michigan's Capital City — the state's seat of government since 1847 and the sixth-most populous city in Michigan, a community of more than 112,000 residents along the Grand River in Ingham County, home to the Michigan State Capitol, the Michigan History Center, the R.E. Olds Transportation Museum, and the Impression 5 Science Center, and serving as the hub of Michigan's government, insurance, and healthcare economy. Lansing residents access Michigan's Medical Marihuana Program on the same statewide terms as every other Michigan patient: a telehealth visit with a Michigan-licensed physician, certification through the MMMP system, and a $40 state fee paid directly to the CRA. LansingMarijuana.clinic connects Lansing residents with Michigan-licensed physicians via telehealth.
Michigan legalized recreational cannabis in 2018, but the MMMP continues to offer meaningful advantages. Medical patients are exempt from Michigan's 10% adult-use excise tax at licensed provisioning centers. For Lansing residents managing a qualifying chronic condition with regular cannabis use, that exemption represents significant ongoing savings — often exceeding the cost of the $40 state fee and clinic consultation within a few purchases. Medical card holders may also benefit from higher purchase amounts and additional statutory protections under the Michigan Medical Marihuana Act.
Michigan's MMMP has two steps. A Lansing patient books a real-time video visit with a Michigan-licensed physician through this platform. The physician evaluates the patient's condition against Michigan's qualifying conditions and, if the patient qualifies, certifies them directly through the MMMP system. The patient then pays the $40 registry fee at the MMMP patient portal directly to the CRA. When the physician certifies online, same-day CRA approval is possible — the approval email serves as a temporary card for up to 10 days while the physical 2-year card is mailed.
