Is the healthcard considered a government issued ID with a photo? I know even if you have state insurance it is not in the US. You only need one valid. I had my photo driver's license.

I needed practically blood from my sibling and first born child to get my drivers license. But just a government issued photo ID and I needed to resemble the photo that the board of nursing loaded with my profile

If it is not listed as acceptable then it will not be accepted by the center. Other way to check is go to the center and ask
