Tabitha Kreyling of Haverhill was honored with the Fraud Prevention’s Finest award earlier this month by the national Senior Medicare Patrol Program.
The Medicare education project is a federally-funded effort to reduce errors, fraud and abuse in the Medicare system by helping beneficiaries better understand their bills and detect irregularities. Kreyling is a complex interaction specialist with the Massachusetts Senior Medicare Patrol project, managed locally by Lawrence-based AgeSpan. She is trained to handle complex cases that require strong analytical skills.
Also honored were the many Senior Medicare Patrol volunteers in the state who contribute their time and talents to the educational program.
