Illinois meridian

I see a specialist every 6 months I have been self paying both my bloodwork and appointment for the last few years. At the end of every appointment I get given a paper order for my next blood work and I always go to same place a week before my next appointment for blood work.

My last appointment was back in April and I was approved for Medicaid in May. She accepts medicaid according to the meridian website however my usual blood work place does not.

Can I go to any in network labs and give them this script for blood work and it will be covered or do I need to see my specialist while on medicaid first?

Meridian says I don't need a referral to see a specialist so I assume her appointment would be covered but I have no idea what to do with the blood work side.

Website says some lab work needs prior authorization. Is this script enough? Will member services be able to answer my question
