I am a registered patient with Mayo
I am a registered patient with Mayo. It is a long painful process to get an appointment if you are lucky to get one. My Medicare starts in a month. The people at the gate ( clerks making the appointments are trained not to let anyone without money to book an appointment. FIrst they ask if you have insurance ( if you don't you are out of luck ) I was asked to give $5000 deposit because I do not have an active insurance and I was wiling to give but Diane in the the appoinemtn scheduling today June 4 said it does not matter if I will deposit $5000 I will still not be able to make appointment. That tells you that this hospital is "FOR PROFIT " and they should be removed the NON PROFIT status !!! What a shame. I have made several attempts to make appointment and each time the gatekeepers are trained not to accept.
