I must consider myself naive. When I was growing up, my grandmother would kneel at the bedside with me and my uncle and we would say our prayers together. My mother would stop by my room each night and ask me whether I had said my prayers or not. My prayer was a simple prayer. You have probably heard it many times yourself. It goes, “Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep. If I should die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take. God bless everyone.”

In an effort to better protect the identities of people on Medicare, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services have changed Medicare cards. Starting in June 2018, Kentuckians on Medicare will be receiving a new Medicare card. No longer will a person’s social security number be used as the Medicare ID number. Instead, Medicare recipients will be receiving a new Medicare ID number that is unique to them. The new card will not change the coverage or benefits.
