New Login for Medicare

Medicare now lets you create or log in to your account using ID.me, CLEAR, or Login.gov. These are free services that verify your identity and help protect your information.
Because these sites are connected to your Medicare number, you'll be asked for sensitive personal information, including:
• A driver's license, state photo ID, or U.S. passport
• Your Social Security Number (SSN)
• A photo or video of yourself

Unfortunately, this makes the process a prime target for scammers. 🔍
WATCH FOR THESE SCAMS:
• Fake Emails & Texts: Scammers send official-looking messages urging you to click a link to "verify your account" or claiming there's an urgent issue with your benefits. Don't click. It's a trap.
• Fake Websites: Fraudulent sites are built to look just like government pages. They'll ask for your login details, steal your personal and medical information, or even charge fees for services that are completely free.
• Unsolicited Calls: Scammers may call claiming you need to activate your new Medicare login. Medicare will NEVER call you first to ask for personal information.

PROTECT YOURSELF:
• Always start at Medicare.gov. Type it in yourself, never follow a link.
• Only trust websites ending in .gov.
• Never share your SSN or Medicare number with anyone who contacts you first.
• Report suspicious activity to your local Senior Medicare Patrol (SMP).
