July 2018 | 2018 Summer Newsletter
Starting in June 2018, new Medicare cards began arriving in the mailboxes of Medicare beneficiaries. The new cards have a slightly different design; and a new Medicare number which is unique to each recipient.
If you have not yet received your new card, you may want to verify that your address is correct in the Medicare system. If your address is correct, you do not need to take any further action. Your new card will be sent automatically.
Once you receive your new Medicare card, destroy the old card and
immediately begin using the new card. Medicare will never call you to ask for your personal, confidential information. If you receive a telephone call requesting personal information, it is likely a scam. DO NOT give out your personal information. Hang up, and call Medicare to report the incident.
Learn more about the new Medicare cards at medicare.gov or call Medicare: (800) 633-4227.
