Get Ready for Medicare Fraud Prevention Week

ACL and its Senior Medicare Patrol Resource Center lead the nation's annual observance of Medicare Fraud Prevention Week (MFPW), which aims to raise awareness of actions everyone can take to help prevent Medicare fraud. 

Every year, Medicare loses an estimated $60 billion due to fraud, errors, and abuse. Issues related to these problems affect people across the country every day, often costing them time, money, and peace of mind. That’s why it's so important to spread the word about simple ways for beneficiaries, caregivers, and others to protect themselves and their loved ones.

We hope you’ll join us — during MFPW and year-round — in promoting the importance of preventing, detecting, and reporting fraud. We’ve created materials to make that easier. Visit our webpage for more information and ready-to-share content like videos and graphics.
