Bill negotiations reduce the costs of medical bills from providers and facilities that do not participate with a provider network for total cost management.
Our negotiation team proceeds with a review of UCR, Medicare, claims utilization history and in-network payment rates to aggressively negotiate with non-network hospitals, physicians, and ancillary health care providers to reduce costs.
Medlogix’s Bill Negotiation program includes:
- Direct negotiations by experienced, highly-skilled negotiators with expertise and knowledge of rate levels
- All negotiations are confirmed with signed Letters of Agreement from providers
- Prospective and retrospective negotiations
- Customized referral criteria
- First and Third party Auto negotiations include signed Letters of Acceptance (LOAs) for each negotiated PIP bill.

How does bill negotiation work?
Bill negotiation is a process where a company, like Medlogix, acts on your behalf to reduce the cost of medical bills. They do this by contacting your healthcare providers—such as hospitals and doctors—who are not part of your insurance plan's network. Medlogix's negotiation team reviews standard payment rates (like UCR and Medicare) and uses this information to negotiate a lower price for the services you received. Once a new, lower price is agreed upon, they get a signed agreement from the provider to make it official.
What is the meaning of "out-of-network"?
"Out-of-network" refers to any healthcare provider, such as a doctor, hospital, or clinic, that does not have a contract with your specific health insurance company. When a provider is out-of-network, they haven't agreed to the pre-negotiated, discounted rates that in-network providers have. As a result, using an out-of-network provider almost always leads to higher costs for you, as your insurance company may cover less of the bill.
