How do I report fraud, waste or abuse of Medicare?

Answer:

To report suspected Medicare fraud, call toll free 1-800-HHS-TIPS (1-800-447-8477).

HHS has joined with the Department of Justice and AARP to launch a national initiative against fraud, waste, and abuse in the Medicare program. The campaign,"Who Pays? You Pay," is aimed at both waste and at criminal fraud and abuse against the Medicare program.
