This is beyond what I have looked into but I believe RAF, a number used for reimbursing MA plans, has no meaning on “regular” Medicare.
It might not affect your wallet, but if they have you listed as a smoker and you are not, would you want to correct that?

And it might affect Medicare's wallet - which we are all paying for.

It would be nice if the doctor (or insurance company or medicare) showed you the records that they based your score on so that you could have some idea if they are accurate.
