Each year during Medicare’s Annual Enrollment Period (AEP), scam activity surges. From October through December, millions of Medicare beneficiaries are targeted by misleading ads, high-pressure sales tactics, and fraudulent plan switch calls and other Medicare scams. Scammers know this is when people are reviewing and changing coverage — and they take full advantage of the confusion.
If you’ve ever received an unexpected Medicare call or postcard, you already know how convincing these schemes can sound. The consequences are serious: you could lose your coverage, your doctor, or even your identity. That’s why it’s more important than ever to understand how these scams work — and how to stop them.
A Free, Practical Course to Keep You Safe
Medicare Scams – How to Spot Them, Stop Them, and Protect Yourself is a new, free course created to help you recognize and prevent the most common types of Medicare scams. In just a few short lessons, you’ll learn how to stay in control of your coverage and protect yourself, your loved ones, or your clients from deceptive practices.
The course covers:
- The five most common Medicare scam patterns to watch for.
- How to spot red flags in calls, mailers, emails, and door-to-door visits.
- The truth about “plan switch” scams and how they happen.
- Tips to handle high-pressure sales tactics without falling for them.
- When and how to report suspicious activity — and to whom.
Why This Matters
Medicare scams aren’t just frustrating; they’re costly. Victims can lose benefits, access to their preferred doctors, or face financial damage that takes months to undo. Some scams are outright illegal, while others operate in a gray area — technically legal but deeply misleading.
This course gives you real-world examples of these tactics and insider strategies you won’t find in government brochures. You’ll finish with the confidence to hang up and report suspicious Medicare calls, walk away, and make smart Medicare decisions on your own terms.
Who Should Take It
This course is perfect for:
- Anyone turning 65 or already enrolled in Medicare.
- Caregivers helping parents or loved ones with their Medicare coverage.
- Financial professionals or HR teams who want to safeguard clients and employees.
If you work with or care for someone on Medicare, this free resource is an essential guide.
