West Conshohocken, PA – October 23, 2024 — During this year’s Medicare open enrollment period, Tandigm is helping seniors understand and avoid common Medicare scams and attempts to steal personal identity details.
Medicare open enrollment runs from October 15 to December 7, 2024. During this time all Medicare plan enrollees can reevaluate and update their Medicare coverage.
Tandigm is offering a free resource with guidance on how to protect personal data and privacy, and questions to ask when shopping for health insurance. Top tips include:
- Beware of unsolicited offers. Be cautious of unsolicited phone calls, emails, or in person salespeople offering Medicare plans. If you don’t have an existing relationship with the business, they should NOT be contacting you.
- Avoid high-pressure sales tactics. Be cautious of anyone who pressures you into making immediate decisions about your healthcare.
- Insist on a benefit comparison of your existing benefits to new benefits. Make sure all your physicians accept the insurance you are being offered.
- Get a comprehensive overview. Always ask which plans the person is certified to sell, and which plans they are not certified to sell.
