Patient Care Group Scam
The Department of Veterans
Affairs (VA) has received many reports that veterans are being contacted
by "Patient Care Group" claiming they are helping administer VA
prescriptions. Callers are telling unsuspecting vets that the VA’s
pharmacy billing procedures have changed and they are therefore
requesting veteran credit card numbers for prescription payments in
advance of filling their prescriptions. This is false. VA
does not call veterans asking to disclose personal financial information
over the phone and the VA has not changed its processes for
dispensing prescription medicines.
