Extortion .....

Extortion
Unlawful exaction of money or property through intimidation or undue exercise of authority. 

It may include threats of physical harm, criminal prosecution, or public exposure. Some forms of threat, especially those made in writing, are occasionally singled out for separate statutory treatment as blackmail. 

"Hello, Joe Dooley calling, I need a refill on Prescription 98765432, I only have a few left."

"Hi Joe, let me talk with the Doctor."

"Joe, he said you would need to make an appointment and come in meet with our Phlebotomist and have blood work performed, and you must fast before coming in,....... will Wednesday at ten am be OK? And, fasting before you see our Phlebotomist, OK?"

I cannot get my prescription refilled unless I "PAY" for lab work.

Unlawful exaction of money or property through intimidation or undue exercise of authority. 

Anyone think I may have a lawsuit here?
