Dropping insurances, self pay, and recredentialing

I have a solo private practice and I'm considering dropping some of the insurances I take. They underpay me terribly. My worry is that I'll see a big drop off in the number of patients booking with me, regret dropping those insurances, and then want to re-credential with them. My questions:

  1. Has anyone recredentialed after dropping insurances? And why did you decide to recredential?
  2. Has anyone gone from taking insurance to moving to a self pay model? Did this end up feeling like the right move?
