To log in to your My Medicare (Medicare.gov) online account, you use the official Medicare website and your personal username and password on the secure sign‑in page.

My Medicare account login steps

  • Go to the official Medicare website: https://www.medicare.gov (this is the current site that replaced the old MyMedicare.gov name).
  • On the top‑right of the homepage, select “Log in / Create account” or a similar sign‑in link.
  • Enter the username and password you created when you set up your account, then click the Log in or Sign in button.
  • If the credentials are correct, you’ll be taken to your dashboard, where you can see claims, coverage, and other personal Medicare information.

If you don’t have an account yet

  • Use the “Create an account” option on the Medicare.gov login screen.
  • Provide your Medicare Number and your Part A or Part B start date from your red‑white‑and‑blue Medicare card.
  • Enter your name, date of birth, ZIP code, and email (or indicate you don’t have one), agree to the terms, and continue.
  • Create a username and strong password that meets Medicare’s rules (8–16 characters, at least one letter, one number, and allowed special characters, and not based on your Medicare number or SSN).
  • Set up security questions and complete the form to finalize your account, then you can log in using your new credentials.

Forgot username or password

  • On the Medicare.gov sign‑in page, use the “Forgot username?” or “Forgot password?” links under the login fields.
  • Follow the prompts, which may ask for your Medicare number, personal details, and answers to your security questions to recover or reset your access.
  • If you still can’t get in, you can call 1‑800‑MEDICARE (listed on Medicare.gov) for help with account issues.
