Renewal Process in New York State

On March 20, 2023, the Office implemented updates to the Medical Cannabis Data Management System (MCDMS), now enabling automatic registration of patients upon certification!


Before your online consultation:

1. Whether you are new to FadeMD or already have an account, log in and start a new application.

2. Select an appointment time with one of our licensed physicians.

3. At the scheduled time of your consultation, log in to your FadeMD account and enter the waiting room. Ensure your camera and microphone are enabled.


After your online consultation:

- Your state-issued certification will be uploaded to FadeMD within 24-48 hours.

- You will receive an email notification once it is ready for download. Log into your account, click on your email at the top right corner, then go to your Order History. Here, you'll find your most recent order. Click on this to download your certificate.

- You can legally purchase cannabis from a licensed dispensary using your certification. Remember to bring a copy of your certification and a government-issued ID when you visit the dispensary.


Please note: The State no longer issues physical cards automatically; you must request one if needed. Contact information for this request can be found at the bottom of your certificate.
