How often do I need to renew my West Virginia medical cannabis card, and can I do it online?

West Virginia medical cannabis certificates are valid for one year and can be renewed online. We recommend renewing 60 days before your expiration date to avoid a lapse in coverage.

Renewal consultations with Leafwell cost $99 and you'll only be charged if approved.

Here's a summary of the renewal process:

  1. Sign in to your Leafwell account or register as a renewal patient here.
  2. Speak to a West Virginia-licensed physician online.
  3. Get approved and your certification will be submitted directly to the state using your SSN.
  4. Log into the West Virginia Office of Medical Cannabis registration portal to complete your renewal application online and make payment.
  5. The state will notify you via email within 30-60 days. Once approved, download your digital patient card through your state account.
