They billed Medicare 5 times for 300 Intermittent urinary catheter, with insertion supplies Each one was for $3,033.00 for a total of $15,150.00

The good news is Medicare denied all of them, so no money loss, just 5 pages of paperwork mailed to me. Same company as last time. They need to just reject anything from them, and send the FBI over to wherever they are hardhearted, and arrest them. It will never happen, unfortunately. Since that old Medicare number is closed, they can't get money.
Another likely scenario is that someone fatfingered their number entering it, ending it up in yours.

Numbers should be algorithmically generated based on some other input so this shouldn't happen and end up being a valid number for someone else but ...
