Same as above. Claimed to be from the National Pain Center and calling about creams and ointments that would take my pain away (note: I'm 30 and have no pain). Told them to not call me again, and she said "I can call you back later." I try not to get nasty with telemarketers, but this one wouldn't take no for an answer. Eventually hung up on her and blocked the number.
Why is this scam still in operation? I got a call today, 10/19/18 using the same tactics. The caller spoofed the caller ID to show from Leesburg VA. The caller claimed he was calling from Seminole FL. He claimed his company was "The National Pain Center." I don't see it on a Google search. He refused to give an address for his company, physical or web.

Caller ID showed Annapolis, MD. Caller claimed to be from the "National Pain Center" and was doing a follow-up on all Veterans (I am retired Navy). Asked if I was still in pain, I said "No", he said thank you and hung up. Funny, I never was in any kind of chronic pain that required treatments. I suspect this is another phishing call from the same pain cream group exposed on CBS News over the weekend.
Searching on National Pain Center only brings up a website for clinics in IL. That further reinforces the conclusion that the caller is probably part of a medical insurance scam.
