Does Maxwell NewYork accept insurance?
Through MaxwellNewYork, Dr. Maxwell does not bill insurance due to the non-standard complexity of services provided. Current out-of-pocket pricing guarantees savings considering the value of included non-standard services rendered over time.
Why pay out of pocket for services?
Although in-network benefits lower the costs of psychotherapy, it may be worthwhile for clients to consider the following points:
Insurance reimbursement for services requires a diagnosis that becomes part of one’s permanent medical record
Clients' records are not protected, which means all information about the client, including very personal information, may be obtained by the insurance company
Clients' care is, in a sense, dictated by the insurance company, as the therapist essentially works for the insurance company, not the client
Clinicians are also often better able to meet clients’ needs rather than insurance companies’ needs
