There may be exceptions: I have the impression that Mayo Clinic may not accept Medicare plus supplemental as full payment, but I may be wrong about that. Maybe someone will clarify.

i can clarify a bit--i was taking my husband to mayo every other month. they will accept Medicare, but you will have to pay your portion promptly. they don't accept advantage plans, but his dr recommended a dr @ shands & another in ocala, both were covered.
