Are T's OBLIGATED to continue seeing a client who files a coverage GRIEVANCE************* (not agreement).

?My T's contract was terminated and I filed a grievance against my insurance company to keep paying for sessions.

So I've been seeing her for the past 19 sessions under the assumption that they agreed to pay her/have paid her.

But tonight she told me they haven't paid her a dime since this whole thing started, they just keep SAYING they will.

So I asked her why she is still seeing me if she hasn't been paid, and she responded with, "Because... I have to." So I said no she didn't have to do anything, she could say no, and she said, "I do have to keep seeing you. I really CAN'T say no. You went to the BOARD and very specifically said "I want her to keep being my therapist," so now I have to keep being your therapist. I'm a part of the grievance process you started. I can't say no. Do you want me to say no, is that what this is about?"

Is this a rule for therapists paid by insurance? They can't stop seeing a client who files a grievance like mine?
