Mayo in Jacksonville does take Medicare patients. Unless they have changed in the last 2 years, they do not accept Medicare or any other insurance, though. They will, however, file the Medicare papers which Medicare then forwards to your supplemental insurance carrier. They will fill in their part of a generic insurance form and send it to you. Medicare and/or your insurance pays you direct and you, in turn, pay Mayo. I received checks from both Medicare and my supplement and paid Mayo myself; and no, it did not cover the entire bill.
