Medicare numbers can be found on Medicare cards and also on much of the correspondence from the Social Security Administration or the Medicare provider. They can also be obtained by visiting a local SSA office or by calling the Medicare provider and establishing the member's identity.
Clients often ask us about the meaning of the letter suffix on their Medicare card. Your Medicare number (also called Medicare Claim Number) is usually your Social Security number followed by a code. The code may only appear on your Medicare card but it is assigned by the Social Security Administration to identify the category you qualify under to claim benefits. The number portion could be your spouseâs Social Security number to indicate you qualify for benefits because of your relationship to them.
