My regular doctor sent any referral to Mayo for my EOA of my hands that are getting worse and apparently I was denied because I'm not in their network So even have an insurance you can't get anything done So what kind of network do I need for HMO or how do I get approved to come through a referral for my regular physician with all the paperwork so I can get seen?

@kgresh11, I can imagine you're worried about the loss of function and supporting yourself.
I'm sorry to hear that insurance is an obstacle to care at Mayo Clinic. You may wish to contact Mayo Clinic Insurance & Billing department to see what insurance is accepted or what can be done:
- Mayo Clinic Insurance & Billing https://www.mayoclinic.org/patient-visitor-guide/billing-insurance

Another option may be a facility within the Mayo Clinic Care Network https://www.mayoclinic.org/about-mayo-clinic/care-network
The Mayo Clinic Care Network is a network of member hospitals (https://www.mayoclinic.org/about-mayo-clinic/care-network/members) that have access to Mayo experts and can get care closer to home.
