As a community, we can all play a part in preventing Medicare fraud, errors, and abuse.
• Encourage those you know to talk to a trusted source about their Medicare questions.
• Tell your neighbors about the most recent Medicare scams. You can learn about these at www.smpresource.org.
• Consider volunteering with your local MMAP!
Every one of us can help and protect our neighbors and loved ones from Medicare fraud.

Health care providers, remind your patients that products and services should only be ordered by physicians they regularly see, like you, and that needed medical items should never be ordered through TV ads or unsolicited calls.

Families, encourage your loved one to check their Medicare statements for fraud, errors, or abuse and never give out their Medicare number over the phone for any reason.

Caregivers, you can participate in Medicare Fraud Prevention Week by teaching yourself and your clients or loved ones how to prevent and detect health care fraud, errors, and abuse.
Be on the lookout for things like boxes of knee braces (known as durable medical equipment, or DME) lying around the house. This is a common scam and may mean your client or loved one has been a victim.
To report potential Medicare fraud, contact the local Senior Medicare Patrol (SMP) for help.

The best way to stop fraud from happening is to stop it in the first place. Learning how to prevent Medicare fraud, errors, and abuse and then sharing what you learn is the best place to start.
