Health professionals can now view Medicare cards in the myGov app.
Your patients can now securely store a digital version of their Medicare card in their myGov app wallet. Medicare cards in the myGov app will look similar to those in the Express Plus Medicare app and physical cards.
To protect against fraud and theft, the digital card has:
an animated hologram to show it is not a screenshot.
a QR code that you can scan to confirm its genuine and valid.
Accepting a digital Medicare card and scanning the QR code is optional. You can still verify a Medicare card the way you do now.
