Scam Description
My Medicare Benefits Summary for July 12 2024 reported a claim from Absolute Medical Supplies indicating that 40 Ostomy pouches were delivered to me each month in February, March, April, May and as well as 120 in June, 2024. 80 pouches for June were denied by Medicare. I did not authorize these items, did not receive these items and do not have a medical reason to have an ostomy pouch. Medicare approved and paid $2,054.10 and sent a claim of $524.00 to my supplemental insurance. Supplemental insurer denied the claim. I have reported this to Medicare as fraud.
