You better keep an eye šŸ‘€out for Medicare Fraud🚨!

June Greetings … may this blog find you in the best of health 😊, with your Medicare insurance protecting you like a seatbelt. šŸš—šŸ’ŗ Ā 

Questions about Medigap Supplement Insurance, Medicare Advantage Plans, or what the heck I’m doing in the passenger seat? šŸ¤”šŸš˜(Mitia is learning to drive šŸš™, and Plato is my emotional support dog šŸ¶ā¤ļø.)

EmailĀ Gray@TheBig65.comĀ orĀ book a time on my calendarĀ if you or friends need help with Medicare planning (you’ll have to learn to drive on your own).

Mitia, our Malagasi high school exchange student, has one week left in the US before we bring her home to Madagascar. She’s had an amazing year in the US and we’re squeezing as much as we can into her final days of the adventure.

⇒  You can READ all about her adventure in this article that was just published in the local paper.

This week, I received a ton of feedback from clients exposed to Medicare fraud. A person received a Fedex shipment with 10 boxes of catheters, and they don’t even use catheters. Click on the picture below to learn what to do and what NOT to do.

A simple rule of thumb:Ā  if anyone calls you asking for your personal information or claiming to be from Medicare or the insurance company:

Hang up and call the number on the back of your cards.

And even more important:Ā  please don’t feed the squirrels like my wife Quantz does. The squirrels are driving our dog Plato crazy!

If you’re uncertain, email yourĀ questions to GrayĀ and we’ll let you know our thoughts. Summer is the time to get out and explore.

I saw these two folks out on they trails and they inspired me. Don’t let physical limitations stop you from getting outside.Ā  Adapt and improvise!
