What should I do if my NYC HRA Medicaid card is lost or stolen?

If an individual’s NYC HRA Medicaid card is lost or stolen, it is important to take immediate steps to protect personal information and ensure continued access to healthcare services. The first step is to report the lost or stolen card to avoid any potential misuse. Individuals can then request a replacement card from NYC HRA Medicaid. They may need to provide personal details such as their name, date of birth, and Medicaid identification number, if available. It is beneficial to check the current NYC HRA Medicaid website for specific instructions on obtaining a replacement card and for contact information to assist with the process. This can help ensure that the individual receives the necessary guidance and support in a timely manner. Taking these steps promptly will help maintain access to essential healthcare services.
