Scam tries to fool seniors over health-care rebate
Fraudulent callers claim new forms, numbers, permissions required to get $250 Medicare rebate

INDIANAPOLIS (July 16, 2010) – No matter what anyone on the phone might say, seniors on Medicare don’t have to do anything to receive their $250 rebate check for hitting the “doughnut hole,” the gap in Medicare prescription drug coverage.

“Scammers are calling or visiting seniors to say they need personal information, such as a Social Security or Medicare number, and/or a signature to process the rebate checks. Seniors should never, ever, give their Social Security or their Medicare number to anyone over the phone, and no forms are needed for these rebates.”

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) automatically mails checks as soon as seniors become eligible. No action on the consumer’s part is required.

President Obama announced the rebates, the first step in eliminating the coverage gap under the Affordable Health Care Act, in late May; checks began going out in June and will be mailed every 30 days as seniors reach the gap. To be eligible, a senior must already have Medicare prescription drug coverage and must not be on the Medicare Extra Help program.

For more information about how the Affordable Health Care Act will affect seniors, they should visit www.healthcare.gov.

ALERT Notification Service

The Indiana Department of Correction, in partnership with the Indiana Sheriffs' Association, currently provides an automated system to alert residents living near a state correctional facility of public safety emergencies. As of July 1, 2010 this service will be combined with the Department’s victim notification service, Indiana SAVIN.  The ALERT Notification Service keeps residents informed of prison escapes as well as any potential environmental hazards. In the event of an escape, all registrants will receive detailed information about the escapee, including a physical description and the time of the escape. The automated calls will also relay specific information on other emergencies that could impact nearby homes.

Residents who sign up for the program will be notified via telephone or email. To be notified of an alert, residents must first register for the service. All individuals who were previously registered with the ALERT notification system will still be registered after July 1 and will continue to receive notifications.

To register visit Indianasavin.in.gov or call toll-free 866-891-0330  For more information

The association provides an annual summer leadership camp for boys and girls who have completed the eighth grade or school. This program utilizes sheriffs and deputies as counselors and instructors to provide a better understanding of the duties of a law enforcement officer. The association endeavors to improve the education and professionalism of the law enforcement service by awarding several college scholarships annually to qualified students who desire to attain a degree in the field of criminal justice.
