Your senior years are here, and one of the great benefits to senior-hood is the eligibility to enroll in Medicare. New seniors who have Medicare receive their Medicare cards, which they show for proof of health insurance during clinic and doctor visits. Often, when seniors new to Medicare first get their Medicare cards, they feel the need to laminate their card to prevent it from falling apart in their wallets. The big question in this scenario is: Am I legally allowed to laminate a Medicare card so it will last longer?
