By reviewing the SSA website, I found that the SSN followed by one of these beneficiary codes is referred to as a claim number. SSA assigns a beneficiary code to a SSN after an application for Social Security benefits is filed. These beneficiary codes may appear on correspondence from Social Security or on Medicare cards. However, the codes will never appear on a Social Security card. For example, if the wage earner applies for benefits and his or her SSN is 123-45-6789, then the applicantâs claim number is 123-45-6789A. This number will also be used as the wage earnerâs Medicare claim number, once he or she is eligible for Medicare.
