Veteran and Indigent Patients Are Eligible for Special Discounts!
As part of the Ohio Medical Marijuana Control Program, qualifying patients are eligible for discounts of up to 30% off at dispensaries if they qualify for either "Veteran" or "Indigent" status in the Patient Registry system. In order to receive discounts at Ohio dispensaries, patients are required to register under Veteran or Indigent status when they originally download their card for the first time.
Note: Patients seeking to qualify for registration with special status cannot submit payment for their registration fee until their status has been approved by the Board of Pharmacy. The “Activate Card” button, which begins the registration payment process, is not available while the special status is pending. Once the special status has been approved, the patient will receive a 50% discount on their Patient Registry activation fee.
How To Receive Discounts at Ohio Dispensaries
Prior to downloading your Ohio medical marijuana card for the first time, patients interested in registering under either status must submit appropriate documentation to the Ohio Board of Pharmacy for review. Appropriate documentation includes:
Those applying for indigent status must provide a copy of a letter or other documentation from the United States Social Security Administration confirming:
-
The identity of the patient; and
-
The amount of monthly Social Security Disability Income or Supplemental Security Income benefits the individual will receive during the calendar year they register with the Ohio Medical Marijuana Control Program.
Those applying for veteran status must provide a copy of any of the following documents:
-
Department of Defense Identification Card (active, retired, temporary disability retirement list);
-
DD214, DD215, or National Guard Bureau military discharge certificate indicating disposition of discharge;
-
Report of separation from the National Archives National Personnel Records Center in St. Louis, Mo.; or

Veterans Identification Card from the Department of Veterans Affairs.
Please note: All acceptable proof documents, except a Veterans Identification Card, must show the veteran status as honorable, general, general under honorable conditions, or discharged or released under conditions other than dishonorable.
