When I reported this to the VA , they told me not to worry , the hospital will be audited and have to pay back regular Medicare and my supplemental. So I’m not sure about the villages hospitals not accepting regular Medicare.

The hospitals DO accept regular Medicare. All hospitals do. Some do not accept Advantage plans.
But this discussion is about clinics and doctors, not hospitals.
The Village hospital, now renamed Spanish Plaines hospital, is not part of the Village Healthcare system and clinics.
