Your health care practitioner MUST be licensed to practice in Delaware and be a MD (Medical Doctor), DO (Doctor of Osteopathic medicine), APRN (Advanced Practice RN), or PA (Physican Assistant). Depending on if you apply online or via paper application, your health care practitioner will complete a health care practitioner certification if he or she feels that you will benefit from the use of medical marijuana.
- Step 2 - Complete the Patient Application
- Complete the patient application, or pediatric patient application, in its entirety. You can apply online, or print a paper copy of the application. If you will require a caregiver, ensure that the caregiver completes a caregiver application. Information on how a caregiver can apply can be found here.

- The fee is $50.00 and is non-refundable for all who apply. If you apply online, there will be a section for payment options. If you are mailing your application, please include a check or money order for $50.00, payable to the State of Delaware.
- Step 4 - Submit proof of age and residency
- You, or parents or legal guardian for pediatric patients, must upload a copy of your Delaware issued driver’s license or State issued ID with your application. If you are mailing your application, send a clear photocopy of your Delaware issued driver’s license or State issued ID.
