Senate Bill No. 774 amends existing laws regarding medical marijuana licenses in Oklahoma. The bill modifies the identification number for medical marijuana patient licenses from a twenty-four-character format to a twelve-character format and introduces a PDF417 barcode for verification purposes. It also establishes a medical marijuana use registry that will be accessible to licensed dispensaries and courts, ensuring compliance with state and federal privacy laws. Additionally, the bill outlines the process for obtaining various types of medical marijuana licenses, including short-term and temporary licenses, and specifies the fees associated with these applications.

The bill further emphasizes the confidentiality of medical marijuana patient and caregiver records, mandating that all records be marked as confidential and only accessible to specific individuals, such as the licensee and their physician. It allows counties and cities to enact guidelines that permit license holders to exceed state possession limits. The act is set to take effect on November 1, 2025, and will apply to any new or replacement medical marijuana patient licenses issued after that date.
