I applied for two positions at different companies and ended up taking one instead of the other. I never officially accepted the job at company A (did not sign and return the offer of employment) and I called the recruiter to inform them of my decision.

I've now received a healthcare membership card a few months later, with my name and company A on it.

What am I required to do at this stage?

  • Is this in the USA? If so, you might add that tag.

    Ask company A. They will probably tell you to send it back. It is of no value to you anyway.

Given that you definitely told them you were not taking the job, simply contact them, tell them you received a healthcare membership card in error and ask them if you need to return it or shred it or anything.

Addition: Depending on where you are you may want to keep records of your communications so that you're covered if someone tries to get you into trouble for this.

    They will have already cancelled your coverage account anyway. But it's polite to ask them what they want done with the card.

You may want to send a notification email to the HR like

Dear X,

I received the health card relating to your offer at your company. But I had not accepted the offer. Please do let me know if you would need the card or suggest alternative solutions. Thanks.
