ALBANY, Nueva York, 15 de septiembre de 2025 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ -- El Consejo de Acción para Personas Mayores del Estado de Nueva York (StateWide), una organización sin fines de lucro con 53 años de antigüedad dedicada a atender las necesidades y el bienestar de los más de 3.6 millones de personas mayores de nuestro estado, anunció hoy su fraude del mes a Medicarede septiembre: uso de inteligencia artificial (IA) para estafar a personas mayores en materia de atención médica y Medicare.

El Fraude del Mes según StateWide es un componente de la Patrulla de Medicare para Personas Mayores (SMP, por sus siglas en inglés), el recurso definitivo para que adultos mayores y cuidadores del estado de Nueva York detecten, prevengan y denuncien fraudes, errores y abusos en la atención médica. StateWide es el cesionario y administrador de este programa federal en Nueva York.

María Álvarez, directora ejecutiva de StateWide, aconseja a las personas mayores que tengan cuidado con posibles estafas relacionadas con la inteligencia artificial. "La inteligencia artificial (IA) es una tecnología que permite a las computadoras imitar el pensamiento humano, ya que aprende a partir de datos y genera textos, imágenes o voces que parecen reales. La inteligencia artificial tiene aplicaciones tanto para prevenir como para cometer fraudes en el sector de la salud".

Alvarez citó varias estafas potenciales con inteligencia artificial:

Fraude en la prescripción de medicamentos

  • Las falsificaciones generadas por IA pueden falsificar firmas, videos o mensajes de voz de médicos que autorizan prescripciones médicas.

Llamadas de suplantación de identidad al médico y a Medicare

  • Los estafadores utilizan la clonación de voz mediante inteligencia artificial para hacerse pasar por representantes reales de Medicare y pedirle su número de Medicare.

Estafas de equipos médicos duraderos

  • La IA puede generar documentos médicos, informes de laboratorio y resultados de imágenes realistas pero falsos para respaldar afirmaciones falsas.

Estafas de telesalud

  • Los estafadores crean sitios web falsos de telesalud con fotos de médicos y funciones de chat para robar información personal.

El SMP del estado de Nueva York describió varias formas en que las personas mayores pueden protegerse de las estafas relacionadas con la IA:

Revisar todas las declaraciones de Medicare

  • Compruebe si hay cargos que no haya recibido o aprobado y denuncie inmediatamente cualquier situación sospechosa.

Ser cuidadoso con llamadas inesperadas

  • Cuelgue si alguien le presiona para que le dé su número de Medicare o sus datos personales por teléfono.

No hacer clic en enlaces de mensajes de texto, correos electrónicos o anuncios emergentes no solicitados.

  • Utilice sitios web oficiales o números de teléfono de confianza para verificar.

Verificar a los proveedores médicos

  • Confirme las citas de telesalud y las recetas directamente con el consultorio del médico y el farmacéutico

La Patrulla de Medicare para Personas Mayores del estado de Nueva York puede ayudar a todas las personas mayores con preguntas, inquietudes o quejas sobre fraude en residencias de ancianos, abuso y problemas en la calidad de atención. Sus asesores certificados están disponibles para ayudar. Llame al 800-333-4374.

"Contamos con asesores capacitados que ayudan a informar a los beneficiarios de Medicare en la lucha contra el fraude en la atención médica. Para denunciar el fraude, los errores o el abuso de Medicare, puede llamar a nuestra línea de ayuda contra el fraude de Medicare del estado de Nueva York al 800-333-4374 o visitar www.nysenior.org", concluyó Álvarez.

StateWide además ofrece información y presentaciones educativas, asistencia con respecto a cualquier pregunta de Medicare, comparaciones de planes, apelaciones, problemas de facturación y derechos de los pacientes a todas las personas mayores en todo el estado de Nueva York.

Se calcula que el fraude a Medicare cuesta a los contribuyentes más de $60,000 millones al año en todo el país. Para ayudar a combatir esta industria ilícita, en 2022, StateWide anunció su programa Fraude del Mes con el propósito de dar a conocer estas estafas que afectan a las personas mayores del estado.
