Volunteer and Make an Impact Against Medicare Fraud!
Help protect your community from Medicare Scams by volunteering to tackle the multi-billion dollar healthcare fraud problem. Senior Medicare Patrol (SMP) grassroots efforts are successful, because retired volunteers across the nation empower Medicare beneficiaries to detect and report healthcare fraud.  You can help reduce and prevent losses from the Medicare trust funds and protect benefits for Medicare beneficiaries.  

The Iowa SMP program recruits, trains and guides volunteers throughout the state to help seniors become savvy healthcare consumers.
