1What happens when insurance won’t cover your services? In this episode, we explore how building a practice independent of insurance can actually give you more freedom, stability, and impact.

Many healthcare professionals worry they can’t run a successful practice without billing insurance. But what if the opposite is true? In this episode, Dr. Tamar Lawful breaks down why shifting to a cash-pay or direct-pay model can protect your business and serve your clients better. From the history of health insurance to real stories of delayed payments, she explains why relying on insurance can leave both practitioners and patients frustrated. You’ll also hear practical steps to test a cash-pay option in your own practice without overhauling everything overnight.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • Why the U.S. insurance system was never designed to support personalized or preventative care.
  • How delayed payments and denials can put providers at financial risk.
  • Answers to common concerns: losing clients, legality, credibility, and more.
