New Medicare Card Project
Wednesday,
February 28, 2018
|
|
From April
2018 to April 2019, older adults will receive new Medicare cards from
CMS. To help protect elders from identity theft, these new cards will
replace social security numbers with Medicare numbers that are unique
to each beneficiary.
Follow the CMS
Medicare messaging guidelines (PDF, 106 KB, 3 pp) to share
these changes with elders in your community. To help prevent identity
theft, remind elders to guard
their cards.
This webinar focuses on the implementation of the new Medicare card and
its impact throughout Indian Country.
Objectives:
- Why CMS is undertaking this project
- What the Medicare Beneficiary Identifier (MBI)
is
- How CMS will transition from the old number
(HICN) to the MBI
- What providers should do to get ready for the
new MBI
- How this project impacts Native Americans
- How CMS outreach efforts increase awareness

webinar by emailing ltssinfo@kauffmaninc.com,
