"Medicare Fraud, Waste, and Abuse is a real problem for our Government / tax payers and Medicare beneficiaries. Medicare Fraud may not feel real until it effects you, but what people need to understand is the Medicare Fraud affects every single tax payer! Billions of tax payer dollars EVERY YEAR are lost due to Medicare Fraud. In addition to the lost money, the emotional heartache that a senior experiences when they fall victim may have a bigger impact. Medicare Shield is a free service that empowers Medicare beneficiaries with the ability to easily monitor all of the claims that are filed using their social security number / Medicare Claim Number, and if they see a fraudulent claim, Medicare Shield makes it easy to report it", Robert Bache, President Senior Healthcare Direct.
