Note that the new Medicare cards have no gender marker.

I have the old card but it's gendered correctly. The Social security office must have done something right when I corrected my records 35 years ago.

I am gendered correctly on mine as well. The whole reason they are being changed in because identity thieves can take advantage of you social security number being on the old ones.
