Medicare-related fraud can harm the health, finances, and wellbeing of beneficiaries. While a long-standing challenge, the pandemic, and now the unwinding of Medicaid continuous coverage, are fertile ground for fraud and scams. Join this webinar to learn about the Senior Medicare Program (SMP) and its mission to prevent, detect, and report health care fraud affecting Medicare. The presentation will include common and emerging fraud trends including medical identity theft and COVID fraud, and educational products created by the SMP to protect the public. Attendees will also learn about the SMP’s groundbreaking effort over a three-year period to detect, analyze, and report COVID fraud to assist multi-agency law enforcement task forces across the nation.
