Lunch and Learn -Medicare Fraud

Fort Meigs
3/2/26 - 3/2/26
VIEW

Medicare fraud, errors, and abuse affects everyone.

Each year, Medicare loses BILLIONS of taxpayer dollars to improper claims. This puts the Medicare trust fund at risk for everyone and affects the future of the Medicare program.

Medicare fraud, errors, and abuse also affect current Medicare beneficiaries because they result in higher Medicare premiums and waste money that could be used to increase and improve health care services. If you have been one of the millions of people to experience Medicare fraud, know that it isn’t your fault and that the Ohio Senior Medicare Patrol can help! This presentation will help you stay on the lookout for current scams and we’ll share what to do if you or a loved one has been affected by a Medicare scam.
