 NuggMD, the nation's leading medical marijuana telemedicine platform, has launched its service in Washington state for just $139. Since its founding in 2015, NuggMD has connected over 1,000,000 patients to their medical marijuana physicians via its state-of-the-art telehealth platform.

"Telehealth has never been more important for patients who are increasingly feeling the pinch of inflation, especially on the West Coast," said Alex Milligan, NuggMD co-founder and CMO. "We're excited to offer our platform to physicians who wish to provide follow-up care to their patients in Washington state, where appropriate."

Washington's registered patient population has fallen to nearly half of its peak of over 20,000 registered patients in 2017, with only 6,315 cards issued so far in 2023. Registration with the state is voluntary, but only registered patients are exempt from cannabis retail taxes.

"Sure, there are fewer patients now," said Collin Mann, CEO and NuggMD co-founder. "But Washington's medical program is still very important for both registered and unregistered patients. We hope we can help keep that program alive by helping patients more easily access their physicians."

NuggMD's platform is available from 8 am to 10 pm seven days a week. No appointment is needed, and patients who don't qualify for their state's medical cannabis program won't be charged for their evaluation.
