Yes, your next step is to look at who Mayo Arizona accepts. Not one mapd.
But you did have to check didn't you?

i’m not concerned about Arizona since the majority of my clients live in Wisconsin. I have zero concern about getting the care I need anywhere in the country. Is every hospital in the US in my plan …of course not but I have plenty of options ..
Mayo’s a joke . 14 yrs ago I went there for 1 week of tests . They found nothing. Supposedly 20-40 drs look at your results and determine what’s going on .It took a small independent dr to figure out what my issue was . The only thing Mayo caused me was getting a $3 k bill because they used an out of network dr . When you go to the Mayo Clinic you give you ins card . I was told everyone’s an employee that works for Mayo .
What a hassle.
We have a network for 64 years of our life but God forbid that 65th year we do.

I have no idea what that means.
Neither does he.
I have a guy I work with made the mistake of saying, “if you buy a plan G, you only owe the Part B deductible and then you pay $0 the rest of the year.”
His client went to Mayo in Jax for blood work. She owed $900. I told him to never say everything is covered but to tell them that it’s covered when it’s Medicare approved charges.
$900. Plan G. Mayo. This was after Medicare paid and the Supp, and she was livid. He forgot that Medicare doesn’t cover annual physicals. And I guess they charge through the nose.
