Good Afternoon,

Attached is the latest edition of the Wisconsin Senior Medicare Patrol’s quarterly newsletter – The Scoop. This issue includes information about the latest national health care fraud takedown, 2021 Medicare premium and deductible amounts, information on one of the latest Medicare scams regarding plastic cards, and so much more!

You are welcome (and encouraged) to share this newsletter with anyone you think might find the information useful – whether it be consumers, Medicare beneficiaries, neighbors, family and friends, those who work with older adults, etc.

Please feel free to contact the Wisconsin Senior Medicare Patrol if you have any questions. We can be reached at our toll-free helpline, (888) 818-2611 or by email, smp-wi@gwaar.org.

The Senior Medicare Patrol is just a ZOOM call away! We are available to share our important message about Medicare fraud, abuse, and errors with Medicare beneficiaries, their family members, and caregivers across the state. If an opportunity for a virtual presentation exists within your agency or group, please do let us know.

We wish you a safe and happy holiday season!
