I get legitimate calls from my health insurance company. When they call, they are not allowed to say the company they call from, it's a HIPAA thing. Once I say the name of the health insurance company, they will confirm it. It's weird, but it's the way it is now.

My health insurance company asks for me by name (“is this …?”). And it’s to a number they know.
