3. Is this person acting appropriately?
- The Marketplace, , and your state will never threaten you or your household or ask for your credit card information or payment to keep or qualify for health coverage.
- If they ask you for money or personal information for health insurance, report it right away. This includes calls claiming to be from government agencies, like Medicaid or Medicare.
- If you suspect suspicious behavior, hang up and don’t reply.
