You’re getting a new Medicare card!
Cards will be mailed between April 2018 – April 2019
You asked and we listened. You’re getting a new Medicare card! Between April
2018 and April 2019, we’ll be removing Social Security numbers from Medicare
cards and mailing each person a new card. This will help keep your information
more secure and help protect your identity.
You’ll get a new Medicare number that’s unique to you and it will only be used
for your Medicare coverage. The new card won’t change your coverage or
benefits. You’ll get more information from Medicare when your new card is
mailed.
Come join us in cooking a Tofu Scramble
Here’s how you can get ready:
■ Make sure your mailing address is current. If your address needs to be
corrected, contact Social Security at ssa.gov/myaccount or 1-800-772-1213.
TTY users can call 1-800-325-0778.
■ Beware of anyone who contacts you about your new Medicare card. We’ll
never ask you to give us personal or private information to get your new
Medicare number and card.
■ Understand that mailing everyone a new card will take time. Your card might
arrive at a different time than your friend’s or neighbor’s.
