Non-terminal Illinois patients under 18 in the Medical Cannabis Patient Program need two electronic certificates from two different health care professionals: one Recommending and one Reviewing. Each professional creates their certificate in the IDPH Provider Portal under the Minor MCPP category, and the qualifying conditions on both must be identical. The parent or guardian then links both certificates to the minor's application.
Two different Illinois health care professionals registered in the provider portal each complete a whole certificate, one selecting Recommending and the other Reviewing as the certification type. The parent or guardian completes the minor's application.
