<prompt> Human: Exactly as the title says. Can I leverage my states Medicaid maximum prices for them to reduce prices? If not, is there another approach I should take to get them to reduce the bill?I have insurance through my company but it is a preventative, high deductible plan so they did not pay for a big portion of my blood tests. Already tried to go through them, they will not pay for it.To determine the prices, I used CPT codes and checked prices for my state and came across the Medicaid guidelines for 2016. I have no idea how they came up with a charge that is 578 of what Medicaid wouldve charged.Edit: Turns out the lab tried to charge me as out-of-network. Now waiting for a new invoice. Thanks to those who tried to help!  <response>: Unless youre on Medicaid, the prices determined by Medicaid dont matter. Like at all.
