Hi, I’m not sure who told you that Mayo doesn’t accept Medicare. That’s not accurate. I’m a patient there and have Medicare. It’s not at issue and everything is taken care of smoothly and efficiently. They’re required by law to accept Medicare. But you do need to be preauthorized by your insurance carrier before attending a clinic.

Here’s some information for you regarding each of the Mayo Campuses and their insurance guidelines. I hope this helps you out.

What brings you to our Mayo Clinic Connect?

The confusion about Mayo and Medicare may be because Mayo's policy has changed over the years. At one time the policy was different based on location.

And in addition, it can depend on what type of "Medicare" insurance you have.

I have original Medicare (Part A and B) and Medicare Supplemental Insurance (Medigap) and go to Mayo Rochester.

If you have a Medicare Advantage policy (also known as Part C) from a private insurance company, you may be restricted by what doctors are in network. Some Medicare Advantage policies are accepted at Mayo.

See the links in @loribmt response for links to Mayo's web page about insurance.

When you arrange an appointment at Mayo, they will verify your insurance coverage.
