What Specifically Expires
Florida MMJ patients have two separate renewal obligations that run on different timelines:
- Physician certification: Florida law requires a physician re-evaluation every 210 days — approximately every 7 months. The physician must confirm your qualifying condition remains valid and that continued certification is clinically appropriate.
- OMMU state registration: The $75 state registration renews annually. Your physical OMMU card has an expiration date tied to this registration period.
Both must remain current for dispensary access to continue. If either lapses, your OMMU registry status becomes inactive and dispensaries will not be able to process your purchases.
How to Avoid a Lapse
- Monitor your OMMU portal: Log into mmuregistry.flhealth.gov to see your certification status and both expiration dates.
- Schedule physician renewal before expiration: At Miracle Leaf, renewal evaluations are $119. Schedule 2–3 weeks before your physician certification expires to allow processing time. Call (561) 888-6111.
- Renew your OMMU registration online: The $75 annual state registration renewal is completed through the OMMU patient portal — separate from the physician renewal.

Renewal evaluations at Miracle Leaf are $119 — shorter than new patient evaluations. Dr. Sadow reviews your current status, confirms your qualifying condition remains valid, and re-enters your physician certification in the OMMU system the same day. Dispensary access is restored same day.
