So Medicare should have paid a big chunk of it - right? - and it's your private insurance that doesn't want to pay?

Might it benefit you to change to a different private carrier? I have Medicare and United Healthcare, and I never have to pay a penny for anything, or stay within any network. I can see whatever doctor I want and don't even need any referral. What Medicare doesn't pay, United does.
