Health Care Law Brings Out Scam Artists

This week the Secretary Health and Human Services, Kathleen Sebelius, issued a word of precaution against scam artists claiming involvement in the new health care reform.

Imposters are going door to door claiming you must sign up and pay now for the expanded government assisted health coverage. They are telling their victims that there is a "limited enrollment period". The coverage for the uninsured doesn't even begin until 2014. Please be guarded with anyone showing up at your home or calling offering to sell you coverage. In general, when dealing with unfamiliar solicitations, I recommend you always take the sales person's name, employer, and phone number so you can research them before proceeding.
