Senior Medicare Patrol Project – SMP

It is estimated that each year one out of every ten dollars spent by the government on health care is lost to fraud, waste and abuse. To combat this drain on the Medicare and Medicaid system, hundreds of individuals across the nation have teamed up to volunteer for the Senior Medicare Patrol Project. This dedicated group of individuals provides education and training for seniors and their families on how to detect, prevent, and report suspected abuse and fraud.
