The Delaware Senior Medicare Patrol (DE SMP) is here to help.
We empower Medicare beneficiaries, their families, and caregivers to prevent, detect, and report suspicious activity in the healthcare system.
What Does DE SMP Do?
The Delaware SMP is funded by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and focuses on three key areas:
Outreach and Education
We teach Medicare beneficiaries, caregivers, and the public how to recognize:
- Medicare billing errors
- Potential fraud schemes
- Abuse of Medicare services
Through workshops, printed materials, and community events, DE SMP helps you stay informed and protected.
Volunteer Engagement
Volunteers are essential to our success.
We train and support community members who:
