Tens of billions, yes, billions with a B, of dollars are lost annually due to Medicare fraud. As candidates for the 2020 Presidential election discuss health care, with some proposing "Medicare for all", and how to pay for it, it's important to consider how much can be saved by cracking down on this abuse of the system. Listen in as we discuss the ways in which Medicare recipients can be defrauded, and how to be vigilant in prevention. We talk with Dan Milloy of the Center for Advocacy and the Rights & Interests of the Elderly (1-800-356-3606), and Shelly Schwartz a local advocate and volunteer for the organization.
