Please share this warning with friends and family who rely on Medicare.

Did you know that if you take a genetic test that isn't approved by Medicare, it could cost you thousands? If you get a call about a "free" genetic test kit, cancer testing kit, DNA kit, etc. and they say Medicare will cover it, know that it's likely a scam. If you want to have any kind of genetic testing done, please do it with your doctor.
If believe you have been involved in a scam, reach out to the Kansas Senior Medicare Patrol today by calling 800-860-5260.

Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness in the United States. Glaucoma has no noticeable symptoms in its early stages, and vision loss progresses at such a gradual rate that people affected by the condition are often unaware of it until their sight has already been compromised. During Glaucoma Awareness Month in January, we join the American Academy of Ophthalmology in advising the public that the best defense against developing glaucoma-related blindness is by having routine, comprehensive eye exams.
