Hello Toni,
On March 5, I received a Medicare.gov newsletter by email, and I am worried that I may have fraud on my Medicare.gov account. I received my current Medicare summary by mail with a Medicare claim from a medical office that I am not aware of visiting. I’m not sure what to say or how to appeal the claim when I reach out to Medicare.
Also, I am going to receive the new plastic Medicare card because I received a call a few weeks ago about it. But I’ve searched the Medicare.gov website, only finding my current card. I did not give out my personal information when I received the call and just hung up like you say to do.
Please advise me how I should contact Medicare because it is difficult to know what’s the right thing to do when it involves a government agency. Thanks, Toni.
