Why do psychiatrists need insurance?

Psychiatrists may consider insurance to help cover the cost of claims, lawsuits, and other unexpected expenses. 

Providing mental health care requires clinical expertise, sound judgment, and strong relationships with patients. However, allegations of negligence, disputes over treatment, or accidents involving patients or visitors can lead to costly legal fees and compensation claims. Insurance helps protect psychiatrists and their practice, so they can focus on delivering quality patient care.
