WellCare of Kentucky Medicaid members have gotten phone calls from scammers posing as WellCare. These scammers claim that members owe money.

WellCare of Kentucky will never contact you to ask for payment. Do not pay them.

Please let your bank or credit card company know if you paid someone pretending to be your Medicaid plan. Be sure to also report this issue to your local law enforcement agency.
