The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) will begin directing selected users to verify their identities through ID.me. ID.me has also secured a new contract with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) to provide identity verification and sign‑in services on Medicare.gov. The contracts add to ID.me’s expanding footprint in government identity services. In October, ID.me announced a deal with Flexpa to expand interoperable patient record-sharing. Beyond federal and state partnerships, the company now works with more than 70 private‑sector healthcare organizations including provider networks, electronic health record (EHR) systems and digital health platforms.
