Scam Call Alert – Be Aware of Scam Calls
Patients have been reporting to OCR that they have been receiving phone calls from individuals pretending to work for our office. The caller typically asks the patient if they are still hvaing pain, and will try to sell them a supplement or brace product. The problem(s) the caller states often does not match the actual orthopedic issue the patient has experienced.
Please be aware that these calls are scams.
The caller does not work for OCR. Our staff does not make these types of calls to our patients, and we have not had a breach of our patient database. Caller ID shows that the numbers are out-of-state and the United States cell phone numbers.
We believe that these scammers simply dial for dollars, attempting to cite the name of a local orthopedic office – often saying our name incorrectly – and asking about any type of orthopedic issue and asking for your insurance information.
Fortunately, the patients have hung up on the callers and not provided any personal information, we encourage you to do the same.
