Question

Does the health department need social security and i.d?

Answer 1

If you are getting services like birth control, shots, home health services, medical records, etc.. then they have to verify that you are who you say you are. they can't just release records to anyone. I could walk in and say I am your mom and they give me the records.. nobody's business whats' in those records..  Just for information..not likely.. depends on what you are asking about.

Answer 2

It depends on what you want to do.  SSN helps determine your eligibility and ID verifies its you.  So for any real services you will need them.
