It is important to remember that you are the first line of defense in protecting yourself against Medicare fraud, and should make a habit of monitoring online accounts.
Remember the four R’s for fighting fraud:
- Record doctors’ appointments and services
- Review claims for any you don’t recognize
- Report suspected fraud to CMS by calling 1.800.MEDICARE (1.800.633.4227)
- Remember to protect your Medicare Number
