The Senior LinkAge Line will offer a virtual presentation covering health care fraud, waste and abuse prevention on Wednesday, Jan. 8, from 10-11:30 a.m.
Fraud and scams are on the rise, with some scammers specifically targeting older adults. But there are ways you can protect yourself and your personal information.
Preventing fraud and scams includes information about fraud prevention, how you can detect and report fraud and scams, so you can keep your personal information and yourself safe.
This presentation includes information from the Senior Medicare Patrol, a federal education and prevention program.
This class is offered online using the Microsoft Teams meeting platform. You must pre-register by going to: January-Preventing- Fraud-and-Scams.eventbrite. com or by calling the Senior Link-Age Line at 800.333.2433.
