All things being equal, Mayo will give priority to a patient with well-paying private insurance over one with Medicare or Medicaid.

Good for them in admitting the reality what it takes to keep the doors open for a healthcare facility.  No money, no mission.

As the article says. It's not shocking that they do so, it's shocking that they openly admit it. Everyone has been doing that for decades. The only alternatives are Medicaid/Medicare mills that run patients like an assembly line, or fraud.
