We have been made aware of “Senior Check Benefits” checks being mailed to individuals in Alabama. These checks are fake and designed to steal identity or money through aggressive sales tactics. Depositing the check could put you at risk. AL SMP 1-800-243-5463

Scammers are offering Medicare beneficiaries cheek swabs for genetic testing that they claim will prevent cancer. This is really to get your Medicare number to bill for expensive genetic tests. AL SMP 1-800-243-5463 #FRAUDFRIDAY

If you’re 65 or older, still working, and have employer coverage, you may not need to sign up for Medicare Part B until you retire. Answer a few questions at go.medicare.gov/3MTx8uM to find out when to sign up for Medicare.

Spring into the start of warmer weather: go for a walk! Walking can help ease you into a new exercise routine, and you can enjoy the outdoors. But remember to walk during daylight hours, avoid uneven ground, and face oncoming traffic. go.medicare.gov/45VjM7G

You may get mail that looks like it’s from official Medicare but it’s likely a sales attempt to change your Medicare plan. Responding to them in any way allows them to call, mail, and email you more. AL SMP 1.800.243.5463

Medicare will not call you to verify your Medicare number. If you get a call asking for anything regarding your Medicare card, hang up. If someone calls and has your Medicare number or you gave it to them, please report it to AL SMP 1.800.243.5463. #FRAUDFRIDAY

1 in 5 adults with diabetes don’t know they have it? Are you at risk? The sooner you know, the sooner you can take steps to prevent or manage diabetes. Medicare covers up to 2 screenings (blood sugar tests) a year if you’re at risk. go.medicare.gov/4cdGzNv

Medicare fraud is when someone knowingly and intentionally submits false claims or makes misrepresentations and then bills the federal program for payment of goods or services they shouldn't. Stop fraud by reviewing your Medicare statements. AL SMP 1-800-243-5463 #FRAUDFRIDAY

Read your Part D or Medicare Advantage Explanation of Benefits to help spot potential pharmacy fraud. Look for errors or suspicious charges. Who should I contact if I have concerns about my Medicare statements or my medications? AL SMP 1-800-243-5463 #FRAUDFRIDAY
