The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) issues distinct, randomized Medicare numbers on modern ID cards to help protect seniors from identity theft and medical fraud.
Medicare beneficiaries can report suspected billing fraud, such as being charged for unreceived equipment or services, directly to the Office of the Inspector General.
Medicare strictly forbids unsolicited phone calls from health plans asking for a beneficiary's Medicare number, and any such request is considered a fraudulent scam.
