There’s more than one way to exercise — and it’s important to get aerobic, muscle-strengthening, and balance exercises regularly. A combination of aerobic exercise (to get your heart pumping), balance exercise (to maintain stability), and muscle-strengthening exercise helps you stay healthy. https://go.medicare.gov/4x6ddLr

Caregivers, you can participate in Medicare Fraud Prevention Week by teaching yourself and your clients or loved ones how to prevent and detect health care fraud, errors, and abuse.

Be on the lookout for things like boxes of knee braces (known as durable medical equipment, or DME) lying around the house. This is a common scam and may mean your client or loved one has been a victim.

☎️ Call PA MEDI for assistance filing a complaint or an appeal, 1-800-783-7067.
