I recently got a divorce and am going back to my maiden name, how do I change it on card? I was separated when I filed for Medicaid, no income changes have occurred.

A) To change your name on your Medicaid card after a divorce, you will need to follow these steps:

1. Update your Social Security card. You can do this by visiting your local Social Security office or by filling out an application online. You will need to provide proof of your name change, such as a copy of your divorce decree.
2. Update your driver’s license or state ID card. You can do this by visiting your local Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) office. You will need to provide proof of your name change, such as a copy of your divorce decree and your updated Social Security card.
3. Update your Medicaid card. You can do this by contacting your state’s Medicaid agency. You will need to provide proof of your name change, such as a copy of your divorce decree and your updated driver’s license or state ID card.

Once you have updated your name on all of your important documents, you should also update your name with any other organizations or businesses that you do business with, such as your bank, credit card companies, insurance companies, and healthcare providers.

Here are some additional things to keep in mind when changing your name after a divorce:

• You may need to update your name on your voter registration, passport, and other important documents.
• You may need to file a new tax return with your new name.
• You may need to update your name with your employer.
• You may need to update your name with your creditors.

Changing your name after a divorce can be a hassle, but it is important to take the necessary steps to ensure that your name is updated on all of your important documents. This will help to prevent any problems in the future.
