Great sharke!  Where'd you read that?  I need to read that source for that quick news and more. Thanks.

I was looking forward to a new Medicare card without my SSN on it but now  after the Equifax hack it kind of feels like a moot point.

There are commercials on tv about this.

I've heard about this in the news.

I become eligible 4/1/18

I read it in the Heloise column. You know the column where they talk about household hints and tips and she does information I guess for the older group , also, since it was her Mother who started the column way back when

My DH is just becoming eligible for Medicare and he just got his Medicare card in the mail.  It is printed on thin paper and not the usual card stock.  It looks like a card made on the printer with white letter paper.

They are sending out cheap  cards until the new ones ar ready to  be sent out.
