Eli5: Why are health cards not allowed when asked for government issued ID?

529 views

Everytime I am asked to bring government issued ID to a meeting. I am told health cards will not count. Why not? It shows a photo and it’s government issued. But drivers licenses are allowed, hell in most places they will accept credit cards.

It might be helpful to disclose what country you are in. In the US I’ve never seen any insurance card include a picture of the insured, and neither do most credit/debit cards.
