Virginia medical cannabis patients now have easier, faster and more secure access to their certifications through a new online portal launched by the Virginia Cannabis Control Authority. 

The mobile-friendly CCA Portal was designed for both patients and practitioners. It strengthens protections for personal information, safeguards against fraud, and provides a simpler process for accessing and storing certifications. The system also tracks every change to maintain accurate records. 

“Our new CCA Portal is a major step forward for Virginia’s medical cannabis program,” said Jamie Patten, acting head and chief administrative officer of the CCA. “It’s safer, faster and easier to use, and it helps us better protect patient information while supporting the integrity of the program.” 

Patients can view their certifications online after receiving an email with instructions to log in. They can then save or print a copy for dispensary visits. The portal allows practitioners to print certifications if needed.
