Scam Description

During a routine examination of my Medicare Benefits Summary, I saw where Absolute Medical Supplies indicated that an Ostomy pouch was delivered to me for the months of February, March, April, May and June, 2024. I did not authorize these items, did not receive these items and do not have a medical reason to have an ostomy pouch. The items were approved and paid for by Medicare totaling $3,668.00, with a claim to my supplemental insurance in the sum of $2,766.96 This was fraud against Medicare.
