Tips to protect yourself from Medicare fraud, scams If you get a call, text or email asking for your Medicare Number, don't respond. Don't give your Medicare card or Medicare Number to anyone except your doctor or people you know should have it. Check your Medicare Summary Notices (MSNs) or claims statements carefully. If you see a charge for a service you didn't get or a product you didn't order, it may be fraud. If you suspect fraud, report it at 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227). Guard your Medicare card like it's a credit card. Visit Medicare.gov, the official source for Medicare information, to learn more about preventing Medicare fraud and medical identity theft. 2025-03-24 18:17:41 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Health Care

Letter: Milltown Road old bank Donna Davis writes: I purchased the last farmhouse left on Milltown Road last year and live across the street from this old brick bank building. I can confirm that the beautiful trumpet vines are still taking over the roof. The metal sheets are dismantling and more are missing now but the two vultures who you will see perched up there in the daytime live in the attic of the old merchantile building that's also on my property.Comments re: Scenic Adair Co., KY: A place of great beauty in Old Milltown 2025-03-24 08:32:21 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback Birthdays and Anniversaries for March 24 Happy Anniversary, Doug and Naomi Cave (1953) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Alisa Shirrell (1968) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Amy Cox | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Anthony Gilpin (1978) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Brandy Lawless | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Brian Melton | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Byron Moss | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Claris Sears | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Clint Aaron (1990) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Donna Simpson | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Emme Moss | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, J.
