Senior Medicare Patrol (SMP)

Medicare & Medicaid · Texas · Free

Empowers seniors to detect, prevent, and report Medicare fraud. Free help in every state. Helpful for retirees, family caregivers, and adults under 65 with disability who qualify after 24 months on SSDI. Counselors walk through specific plans by name, compare drug costs side by side, and flag Medicare Savings Program eligibility. Especially valuable for seniors getting pressure from Medicare Advantage sales calls or door-to-door enrollment pitches. Free service; donations support but never gate access.
