I am really not surprised that Mayo does not take Medicare.
Many doctors no longer take Medicare or they charge you the fee and they refund after they get paid.
I remember my mother-in-law having to change docs several times.
I don't think your PCP verbalized correctly.
I don't think they want to 'make' money off of Medicare, I think they just want to get paid.
Many docs say that either Medicare is very slow to pay, if they pay at all.
Regardless, I am sorry you have to find another doctor.
Good luck!
