Indiana Senior Medicare Patrol

Indiana Senior Medicare Patrol Senior Medicare Patrol (SMP) is committed to helping Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries avoid, detect, prevent, and report health care fraud.

SMP not only protects older persons, they also help preserve the integrity of the Medicare and Medicaid programs. SMP staff and teams of highly trained volunteers conduct outreach to Medicare beneficiaries in their communities through group presentations, exhibiting at community events, answering calls to the SMP helplines, and one-on-one counseling. Like much of the SMP audience, most SMP volunteers are retirees and Medicare beneficiaries themselves and are well-positioned to assist their peers. The Indiana Senior Medicare Patrol (SMP) project was supported, in part by grant number 90MPPG0035, from the U.S. Administration for Community Living, Department of Health and Human Services, Washington, D.C. 20201. Grantees undertaking projects under government sponsorship are encouraged to express freely their findings and conclusions. Points of view or opinions do not, therefore, necessarily represent official Administration for Community Living policy.

Your Medicare number is just as important as your Social Security or credit card number. Make sure you guard it by never giving it out or confirming it over the phone. If a caller asks you for it for any reason, hang up.

In-Case Indiana (IN Council Against Senior Exploitation) had a great turnout at the Richmond Senior Recreation Center for our annual fraud forum. Lots of good info! If you want to learn more about Medicare fraud, contact Nancy Moore, [email protected] to schedule a presentation.

Grateful to have been invited to emcee 🎤 “Unmasking the Fraudster” today. I had the opportunity to moderate presentations and a Q&A with an incredible panel of experts from the Attorney General’s Office, Secretary of State’s Office, Medicaid, the IRS better Business Bureau, and other organizations—all sharing practical information to help people recognize scams, protect themselves and avoid becoming victims.
Fraudsters are constantly finding new ways to take advantage of people, so events like this matter. The more we know, the harder we are to fool 💪 Thank you to everyone who invited me to be part of such an important conversation—and to all of the experts who shared their knowledge and advice. It was an honor to help facilitate the discussion.
