Here are some tips on how to prevent Medicare Fraud

🛡️ Medicare Fraud Prevention Week | June 1–5

Medicare fraud costs billions of dollars each year and can impact benefits for everyone. Taking a few simple steps can help protect your personal information and your healthcare coverage.

✔️ Never share your Medicare number with strangers.
✔️ Review your Medicare statements regularly.
✔️ Be cautious of unsolicited phone calls, texts, or emails.
✔️ Report suspicious activity right away.

Another important layer of protection is working with a trusted Medicare advisor. Before advisors can even discuss plans for a new plan year, we are required to complete annual Medicare Fraud, Waste, and Abuse training. In addition, each insurance carrier requires advisors to complete certifications on their specific plans and products.

Staying informed and working with a knowledgeable advisor can help you make confident decisions and avoid potential scams.
