Become a State Health Insurance Volunteer and help Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries avoid, detect, and prevent health care fraud. As a volunteer you will provide unbiased, personalized counseling about Medicare, including Medicare benefits and rights, billing problems, health and prescription coverage options and enrollment assistance. SHIP staff and their highly trained volunteers conduct outreach to Medicare beneficiaries in their communities through group presentations, exhibiting at community events, and one-on-one counseling. Their primary goal is to teach Medicare beneficiaries how to protect their personal identity, identify and report errors on their health care bills and identify deceptive health care practices, such as illegal marketing, providing unnecessary or inappropriate services and charging for services that were never provided.
