@mikaylar Is your comment related to insurance coverage? If so, please understand that being in network with insurance is a contract between the insurance coverage and the provider. Mayo will need to answer what insurance they accept. They can't take a risk of denial of payment for services with their huge operating costs, and they need to get reasonable reimbursement rates to be able to stay in business. That is not unique to Mayo. It is everywhere at hospitals. A patient might be limited to coverage at facilities only within the state where they live with an "advantage" plan. Mayo is a destination medical facility, so having insurance that covers nationwide access to health care is important if you want to be a patient there.
Here's another comment about health insurance. Many independent doctor practices are offering subscriptions to patients. I just saw one that wanted $160 a month cash billed every month, and did not take any insurance , and have a limited amount of appointment time and testing in their plan. Extra time is billed extra in cash.
