It is against the law for anyone from a Medicare plan
to come to your house, unless you invite them. If someone comes to your
door, or calls to make an appointment with you, and you didn't invite
them to your house, do not let them in and report them immediately to
Medicare (1-800-447-8477), or the Bureau of Insurance (1-800-300-5000).
They are breaking the law..

"MOW's are very helpful and important to both of us. It has
been a rough year for me, I had surgery on my heel and am in a cast now doing
therapy, and Jean has been home alone during that time so meals were important
for him. The friendly driver that comes in also checks on us to make sure we are
okay and helps us to know what they have for the meal of the day, because we are
both blind."
