- Click on the Benefit Forms link
- Click on the CVS Caremark Identification Card. This will allow a PDF of the card to appear.
- Print the card.
The ID number is a nine-digit number starting with three or four zeros and followed by your personnel number.
Examples: 000012345 or 000123456
Your personnel number can be found in the upper left hand corner of your paystub which can be found in Firefly (firefly.nebraska.edu) under Employee Self Service (ESS).
