Depending on which state you reside in, telemedicine may be an option for you. Florida’s telehealth emergency waivers ended on June 26, 2021, after Governor Ron DeSantis’ executive orders expired. The waivers were originally contained in Emergency Orders 20-002 and 20-003. On July 21, 2021, the Florida DOH issued an update that telehealth services were no longer permitted in Florida. Other states around the country may still be able to offer telehealth services. For more information on our national telehealth services please contact our corporate office!
Having a medical marijuana card will not be a reason to prevent you from getting a concealed weapons permit. The Florida Commissioner of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Nicole “Nikki” Fried, oversees the state department tasked with issuing concealed weapons permits and has confirmed that becoming a medical marijuana patient after receiving a concealed weapons permit will not lead to the permit being revoked.
