Maryland Medical Cannabis Commission makes big changes to patient ID card renewal

The Maryland Medical Cannabis Commission has made two changes aimed at making it easier for patients to renew their medical ID cards, a process that is currently considered to be overly cumbersome by many businesses and industry advocates. In a July 28 meeting, the commission moved to reduce the price of a card by half, from $50 to $25, and made cards valid for six years, up from three. The reforms will likely take effect in October.
