[HELP] Saw a specialist without a PCP referral?

hi, i have fidelis care with medicaid and i saw an orthopedic doctor for my broken ankle without getting a PCP referral first. no one corrected me, so i assumed this was fine.

in my insurance’s portal, i see that the claim says “customer responsibility: TBD” and the bill is $2000. i can’t afford this bill and don’t know what to do if my insurance says they cannot cover the visit.

can i go to my PCP and ask for a referral now to get it covered?

please help, i’m 20 and a college student. this was the first time i really had to deal with my health insurance! i don’t know what to do if i’m stuck with this bill!
