Be on the lookout for scammers during Medicare OEP

Now that Mediare Open Enrollment is in full swing, the scammers are also ramping up. If you receive a cold call from someone claiming to be from Medicare or selling Medicare insurance, hang up! Report the call immediately to SHIBA - either online or call 800-562-6900. Medicare and reputable insurance agents will not cold call you about your Medicare.
