No State would allow any misrepresentation of a Carriers Plan.

In addition, there are a lot of Medicare scams. Scammers call people all day long stating they have a plan with a lot of benefits like a food and gas card. Those benefits are available with some plans but the scammers don't care. They just want your information. What they are looking for is people with the older Medicare cards that actually have your social security number as your Medicare number. The scammer will ask you to verify your number, your date of birth and often your address as well. At that point they will have enough information to pull a scam. The cards switched from social security number to an actual code about 5-6 years ago. If you have an old card, contact Medicare to have them issue a new one. Once you receive your new card, destroy the old one.
There are many Medicare plans available and to make sure you are in the best plan based upon your needs, I feel it's always best practice to sit physical sit down with a Medicare specialist to review plan. The problem when people enroll over the phone, people are usually talking with a representative that only represents one company. Often during phone consultations, the rep fails to list your primary doc and fails to double check to make sure all of your specialists are in network.
