A Simple, Supportive Guide from ElevateCareNP

At ElevateCareNP, we make the medical cannabis certification process easy, supportive, and stress-free. Whether this is your first card or you’re renewing, our team is here to guide you every step of the way—with the warm, personalized care that defines our practice.

Below is your straightforward, complete guide to the process.

How to Get Your Massachusetts Medical Cannabis Card

Step 1: Schedule Your Telemedicine Visit

Start by booking a secure telemedicine appointment through https://elevatecarenp.com. Choose a time that works for you—most visits are available same day or next day. There are no complicated instructions or technical setups. Just click your appointment link and you’re ready to go. Once you complete the online intake form you will receive an email confirmation. Visit will be conducted via video or phone - whichever you prefer.

Step 2: Meet With Your Nurse Practitioner

During your virtual visit, one of our experienced nurse practitioners will review your medical history, discuss your symptoms, and determine whether you qualify based on Massachusetts state guidelines.

Qualifying Conditions

Massachusetts allows certification for a wide range of conditions. These include (but are not limited to):

  • Cancer

  • Glaucoma

  • HIV/AIDS

  • Hepatitis C

  • ALS

  • Crohn’s disease

  • Parkinson’s disease

  • Multiple sclerosis

  • Other debilitating conditions as determined by the certifying clinician (this includes chronic pain, PTSD, anxiety, insomnia, and many others

We take time to answer all your questions and make sure you understand your options. If you qualify, we will immediately enter your certification into the Massachusetts Cannabis Control Commission (CCC) database so you can complete the next step. You can review the list of qualifying conditions on the CCC website here.

Step 3: Register With the State

After you are certified, the CCC will send you an email with instructions to complete your online registration. You will need:

  • A Massachusetts photo ID or a government-issued ID with proof of residency

  • Your four-digit PIN (provided by the CCC after certification)

We will help you with the state registration if needed.

If any part of the CCC process is confusing—or if you simply prefer a guided experience—ElevateCareNP provides full support to complete your state registration at no additional cost. This is one of the ways we go beyond standard clinics and ensure every patient gets across the finish line with confidence.

Once approved, the state issues a temporary registration you can use immediately. Your official medical cannabis card arrives by mail shortly after.
