Medicare Hospice Care Fraud Alert
Senior Medicare watchdog group warns of scam targeting seniors and their families
A senior Medicare watchdog group is sounding the alarm about a new scam targeting seniors and their families, as reported by CBS 6 Albany, warning Medicare beneficiaries about a scam focused on hospice care. This warning comes as part of a broader effort to halt Medicare fraud, which has also involved pausing funding to hospice providers in California, as discussed in a letter to the editor published on latimes.com. The issue of government benefits fraud is not limited to Medicare, as seen in cases such as the MBTA Workers Indicted for Fraud and the Woman Charged with $40K SNAP Fraud, highlighting the need for continued vigilance in preventing and prosecuting fraud.
