Mayo Clinic to Leave Most Medicare Advantage Networks
Mayo Clinic will go out-of-network next year for most Medicare Advantage plans from two of the nation’s largest health insurers, UnitedHealthcare and Humana.
According to reports from the Minnesota Star Tribune, tens of thousands of beneficiaries in Minnesota will need different insurance coverage to retain access to Mayo Clinic.
Neither Mayo nor the insurance companies offered explanations for the change.
Officials with the health care provider noted that Mayo is already out-of-network nationally with most Advantage plans, which are a privatized form of Medicare coverage.
