Sign-in options: ID.me, Login.gov & CLEAR
Medicare requires identity verification through one of three free services. Choose the one that works best for you: ID.me — Verify online using your phone camera and a photo ID, or in person at participating retailers like UPS stores. Works internationally. Support: help.id.me Login.gov — A government sign-in service that also works with Social Security, VA, and other federal agencies. Verify online or in person at U.S. Post Offices. Support: login.gov/help CLEAR — Known for airport identity verification, CLEAR also connects with healthcare services. A good option if you already have a CLEAR membership. Support: clearme.com/support Tip: You only need to verify your identity once. After that, you can log in with just your username and password (plus a verification code). Use your own email address — never share login credentials with family members.
