Here is some helpful information we found on how to get a replacement medicare card…
What is a Medicare Card?
- The Medicare card looks like the red, white and blue card shown here.
- Your Medicare card is your proof that you have Medicare health insurance.
- You can use the departments application only to request a Medicare card. If you need a Medicaid card, please contact your state
Medicaid office.
What You Should Know
- Your Medicare card will arrive in the mail in about 30 days.
- It will be mailed to the address Social Security has on file for you.
- If you need proof that you have Medicare sooner than 30 days, you also can request a letter which you will receive in about 10 days.
- If you need proof immediately for your doctor or for a prescription, visit your nearest Social Security office.
- For security reasons, there is a 30 minute time lim
it to complete each page. You will be given notice when you are about to time out and can get more time to finish.
- You can read more about Social Security’s Internet policy here.
If You Have Moved
- If you have moved and have not reported this to them, you will need to report this change to them before they can process your request.
- If you have moved and have reported this to them recently, you will need to contact us before they can process your request.
