Medical Card

The Department of Healthcare and Family Services is transitioning from issuing monthly medical cards to annual paper medical cards. During the next several weeks all currently eligible Medical Program clients will begin to receive in the mail a new paper medical card along with an instructional brochure. The next time another paper medical card will be issued will be after the client’s annual redetermination. Clients are advised to keep their medical card and notices they receive regarding their eligibility. Medical providers will be required to check eligibility when providing services. Visit the links on the right to view the new medical card and informational brochure.
