You don't get a prescription for Marijuana, you get a state license. The "approved" doctor certifies that you have a condition that allows the license. The problem is that everyone who goes to an "approved" doctor is also certified by the doctor for the license. No one is denied the license. So, effectively, there is no screening process. It is just a money grab for the doctor and the state.
Note that it costs about $300 per year to maintain a Marijuana license, not including the cost to buy the drug.
