Patients must first get a Physician Certification Form signed by a licensed physician or dentist in good standing with the state of Missouri.
Use the Standard Physician Certification Form for patients seeking the six ounces per month standard recommended dosage.
A physician certification form signed by an MD, DO, or NP certifying the patient for an extra amount over the usual six (6) ounces per month is required for patients who require more than the standard six (6) ounces.
In order to obtain more than the customary six ounces, patients must use the Alternative Physician Certification Form. Two separate physicians must complete these forms, both of which must be submitted with the same qualifying medical condition specified. In the event that the patient receives less than the recommended amount specified by the physicians on the forms, the lower of the two amounts will be granted.
A Parent/Legal Guardian Consent Form must be filled out and submitted with the application by patients who are younger than 18 years old.
A Patient Authorization Form and the patient’s license number, which they will obtain after their application is accepted, are required for caregivers who are applying. The first digit of this number is PAT.
