Hopefully someone knows way more about this, than I.
Per the Medicare Database, UF Health The Villages Hospital (NPI #1275902124, NPI #1912317538, NPI #1275902124) has NOT opted out of accepting Medicare.
Which leads me to believe the exclusion of non-Advantage plan patients, isn't really an exclusion of Medicare patients, but a refusal to accept their supplemental insurance.
I'm curious if anyone can enlighten me.
