HelloMD

HelloMD is a leading telehealth platform that facilitates access to medical cannabis for patients across the US and Canada. Founded in 2014, the company simplifies the process of obtaining a medical marijuana card through convenient online consultations with licensed healthcare professionals.

HelloMD's user-friendly platform allows patients to book appointments within five minutes and engage in virtual consultations lasting around 15 minutes. During these sessions, knowledgeable physicians guide individuals through the potential benefits of cannabis and assess their eligibility for a medical card based on their state's qualifying conditions.

If approved, patients receive their medical card within a week, granting them legal access to licensed dispensaries. HelloMD's team of cannabis experts further supports patients by providing ongoing guidance on selecting suitable cannabis products tailored to their wellness needs.

The company prioritizes privacy and confidentiality, catering to a diverse clientele, including professionals, parents, and elderly individuals seeking discreet access to medical cannabis. As of March 2015, HelloMD had assisted over 150 patients per week in obtaining medical marijuana recommendations.

Key customers and partnerships

In November 2020, HelloMD expanded its telehealth services for medical cannabis to the state of New York, enabling residents to consult with experienced healthcare practitioners remotely. This strategic move capitalized on New York's expanded list of qualifying conditions, including chronic pain, which broadened the potential patient base.

HelloMD actively collaborates with dispensary groups like PharmaCannis, a New York and Illinois-based company that operates eight dispensaries and three cultivation centers across the two states. Such partnerships facilitate patient education and access to quality-controlled cannabis products through a personalized healthcare consultation model.

Additionally, HelloMD integrated with MyMedi.ca, a Canadian online medical cannabis platform, in April 2023. This integration allows Canadian patients to seamlessly obtain medical documents through HelloMD's telemedicine services, streamlining the registration process for accessing MyMedi.ca's product offerings.
