Assemblyman Ed Ra (R-Franklin Square) was pleased to host a Healthcare Fraud Seminar on Saturday, April 28 at the Mineola Memorial Library. The event featured special guest speaker John Rotondi, a certified senior Medicare patrol educator. During the seminar a variety of topics were discussed including, Medicare cards rollout, scams and frauds related to Medicare cards, how to spot potential fraud and how to protect oneself from these scams and frauds.

“The fact that there are people out there trying to take advantage of the elderly is appalling,” said Ra. “I am pleased we had the opportunity to help some of the senior population learn how to avoid fraud or getting scammed so they can continue to enjoy their golden years. This is a program that I will support and host for many years to come.”
