A recorded female voice explained that Airnet, representing Evicore, was notifying us that a test ordered by my boyfriend’s doctor had been denied by his insurance. She said both he and the doctor would receive a letter and could appeal, and gave a number to call. This was unwelcome given we’re already dealing with serious health issues and don’t need additional scam stress.
Evicore scam calls: How to protect your health info!

Expert Opinion
Imagine getting a call that says your medical procedure was approved, but the voice never names a real company. That scenario shows how scammers blend legit‑sounding language with vague references to insurance or hospitals. The safest move is to verify any claim by calling the number on your insurance card or provider’s official website—never the callback number in the voicemail. Keep your personal info (SSN, DOB, policy number) offline until you confirm the caller’s identity. Use your phone’s block feature and report the number to the FTC or your carrier. A quick check can stop a potential fraud before it harms you.
