Renewal Cost at Beehive Farmacy vs Other Options
Renewal costs vary, but here's what drives the price—and how we compare.
| Factor | Why It Matters | Typical Range (Varies) |
|---|---|---|
| Pharmacist consultation | Required for renewal; our pharmacist reviews your case. | Often $50–$150; ask for our current rate. |
| State renewal fee | Paid to the Utah Medical Cannabis Program via EVS portal. | Usually $15–$30; check the state site. |
| QMP evaluation (if needed) | Some patients need a new qualifying medical provider evaluation. | Varies by provider; we can refer you. |
| Additional services | Expedited processing or extra consultations may add cost. | Ask for a quote. |
Compared to renewing through a doctor's office, a pharmacy-based renewal often saves time and may reduce overall costs because you're combining the consultation with your pharmacy visit. We're transparent about pricing—no surprises.

When Should You Renew Your Utah Medical Card?
Timing is everything. Renew too early and you waste time; too late and you lose access. Here's the sweet spot.
| Timing | What Happens | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|
| 60 days before expiration | State allows renewal starting here. | Start the process now to avoid any rush. |
| 30 days before expiration | Ideal window—plenty of time for processing. | Call us at 385-212-0088 to book your consultation. |
| 2 weeks before | Still feasible, but watch for delays. | Expedite by visiting our Salt Lake City location. |
| Day of expiration | Your card lapses; you lose access until renewed. | Avoid this—renew early. |
| After expiration | You must reapply as a new patient; more steps. | Don't let it lapse; call us immediately. |
We recommend starting your renewal at least 30 days before your card expires. That gives us time to handle the EVS portal submission and any hiccups. If you're unsure of your expiration date, check the EVS portal or call us—we can look it up for you.
