Yeah, I hate the SSN on the health insurance card, too.
But you can do what I did:
- photocopy the health ins. card (front and back) with the SSN covered (or use white-out)
- laminate the copies together to make a single card, complete except for SSN
I called my provider, and they said this was OK; just that I should take the real card to scheduled doctor appointments.
The laminated photocopy should be enough for those unexpected ER visits!
