Free 2013 Senior Fraud Conference in Lawton

 In mailboxes across the country, people with Medicare will soon see a redesigned statement of their claims for services and benefits that will help them better spot potential fraud, waste and abuse.  The new Medicare Summary Notice gives seniors and people with disabilities accurate information on the services they receive in a simpler, clearer way.  The redesigned notice will make it easier for people with Medicare to understand their benefits, file an appeal if a claim is denied, and spot claims for services they never received.  The notices will be sent to Medicare beneficiaries on a quarterly basis.

 Don’t be a victim!  Learn how to protect yourself from fraud by attending the 2013 Senior Fraud Conference on Friday, June 14 at the Comanche County Fairgrounds, Crystal Creek Room, 920 SW Sheridan Road.  This conference is free to the public and breakfast will be served beginning at 8:30 a.m.  You must register for this event which can be done online at www.oid.ok.gov (click on the WHODUNIT link), or call 1-800-763-2828 for more information.
