Employers, plan now for Mental Health Parity rules
February 8, 2010 /
Large employers need to start planning, if they haven’t already, to meet new regulations issued under the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act of 2008. New rules around the act were published on Feb. 2 and impact any plan years beginning on or after July 1, 2010. Essentially, the act says that employers and group health plans cannot provide less coverage for mental health care than for the treatment of physical conditions like cancer and heart disease.
