I got calls from these scammers. They called and said they were returning my call as I had expressed an interest in a back brace. I did no such thing and hung up. They have called back several times over the past few years with the same BS.

It's like playing whack a mole. 48 new suppliers are enrolling every month. CMS just needs to put a moratorium on enrollments like they did with HHAs and ambulances.
The doctors signing off on this crap aren't even in the same state as the beneficiary or the supplier.
They called my husband one time. He was too over the top and they hung up on him.
A lot of those ads for braces can be tied back to compound drug fraud as well.

Yeah, we've received the brace call several times. It's nice to see that at least some of them are taken care of. I wish it were more.

I get computer generated messages for this on a regular basis, and no one in our household is on medicare.

And we have never gotten any of these calls or computer messages...at least as far as I know...DH doesn't always tell me things like this.
