I am registered with all the other major health care providers and private medical insurance companies. In the past, each of these providers had their own network of providers, including psychologists. Psychologists worked directly with the individual insurance companies and invoiced them directly.
However, since the pandemic took all work online for a while, various intermediary agencies have flourished and so many of the insurance companies now use these agencies to manage their clients.
Occasionally, I may still work directly with an insurer, especially when clients have been referred by a GP or psychiatrist.
