Yes. You need to amend the tax return for the year in which you received the income reported on that 1099R. Eventually the IRS will send you a letter if you do not report the income--it was reported to the IRS.

A 1040X cannot be e-filed. It must be printed and mailed. It will take about 4 months for the IRS to process an amended return. It is a good idea to use a mailing service that will track it, like UPS or certified mail, so you will know it was received.
Wait about 3 weeks from mailing and you can check the status of your amended return:
