I know I see it all the time, and it is starting to get ridiculous. I am nervous about reporting patients due to providing too much information that would violate HIPPA. Need advise and input on reporting SSI fraud on patients!

Wow, I had no idea so many people replied to my former thread. Most of you took this the wrong way. I was not inferring to someone using another person's name. I was talking about SSI, supplimental income, AKA people on disability. People who claim to be disabled and collect SSI and get medicare benefits but indeed have a HARD LABOR JOB and get cash under the table. This is the reason our healthcare system and why the US is getting into a deep dark hole.
My questions is, would you report the people who are collecting disability and getting medicare benefits (YES MEDICARE at a YOUNG AGE).....when they are cheating the system?
