Whereas the former Medicare cards reflected the recipient&#8217;s Social Security Number (SSN), the new replacement cards do not reflect SSNs. This change was made to minimize the persons who had access to a taxpayer&#8217;s SSN.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"color:#12c515\" class=\"has-text-color has-medium-font-size\"><strong> <\/strong><br \/><strong>Tax Tip #1:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Carry and use your new Medicare card where you need care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Protect  your Medicare Number and card.
