Medical Identity Theft: Protect Yourself
Medical identity theft is when someone steals or uses your personal information (like your name, Social Security number, or Medicare number), to submit fraudulent claims to Medicare and other health insurers without your authorization. Medical identity theft can disrupt your medical care, and wastes taxpayer dollars. This website provides resources to help you protect your medical identity.
StartYourRecovery Substance Use Resource
StartYourRecovery.org provides information for people who are dealing with substance use issues — and family members, friends, and co-workers. The website is designed to be an easy way to learn about substance use and addiction and to determine next steps, whether it's having a conversation, learning more, or seeking professional help.
