Facility Communications and Guidance
The Facility Communications and Guidance webpage provides resources for businesses holding a medical or marijuana license and individuals working in those facilities. Here, you will find important updates, department issued documents, detailed guidance, and essential communications that impact licensees.
Tracking Daily Operations
Anytime a licensee encounters an issue using an integrated seed-to-sale system, the licensee may continue to track their daily operations directly in Metrc.
Please contact CannabisDevelopment@health.mo.gov to report system issues that are limiting a licensee's ability to maintain operations.
