Mayo doesn't accept Medicare reimbursement rates but they accept Medicare. At least that is my understanding.
Mayo probably accepts Advantage Plans but those plans limit the network of providers you can see. You can probably go to Mayo but be faced with additional costs because of being out of network. Mayo might also charge more than the Medicare approved amounts for health care services so both of these factors would discourage me from going to Mayo if I had an Advantage Plan.
The following discussion talks about this. It is all very confusing. There is nothing about Medicare that is easy to explain or to understand.
