312-423-7501

The Texas Senior Medicare Patrol has received several complaints about Medicare scam calls from 312-423-7501.  The LIVE male caller says that he is calling from Medicare and is offering free braces in exchange for the person’s Medicare ID number.  THIS IS A SCAM.  MEDICARE WILL NEVER CALL YOU.  Report these scams to the Federal Trade Commission (https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov), and your state's Senior Medicare Patrol (1-877-808-2468, or https://www.smpresource.org).   DO NOT GIVE OUT YOUR MEDICARE OR SOCIAL SECURITY IDS.  Check your Medicare Summary Notices (MSNs).  If you see that Medicare has been billed for a brace or other durable medical equipment that neither you nor your doctor has ordered, report that information immediately to your state's Senior Medicare Patrol (1-877-808-2468, or https://www.smpresource.org).
