Medicaid ID Card Guide for Auto Insurers and Insurance Agents

Michigan’s new auto insurance law allows people with Medicaid to make certain selections on their auto insurance policies. Auto insurers, directly or through their agents, should collect Medicaid documentation not only when a person first applies for coverage, but also at every renewal when a person is relying on Medicaid to make a PIP medical coverage selection.

Documentation can be in the form of a current Medicaid card. This guide includes images of Medicaid cards in use as of August 2024.

Michigan contracts with 9 health plans to provide health services to Medicaid beneficiaries. Beneficiaries who are enrolled with these plans have ID cards that may look like commercial health insurance; however, the beneficiaries are Medicaid enrollees. DIFS has provided samples of the ID cards that agents may encounter when verifying Medicaid enrollment for these beneficiaries.
