Those enrolled in the state’s SeniorCare prescription drug program will get new ID cards soon.

Health services secretary Karen Timberlake says members should destroy their old cards as soon as they get their new ones so their privacy is maintained.

The fronts of the new cards have new numbers which are selected at random.

SeniorCare gets a federal waiver to operate. It expires at the end of next year and Timberlake says her agency will ask Washington for a extension in the next few weeks.
