ABC News reports:
President Joe Biden’s administration plans to try to force private insurance companies to offer the same coverage for mental health services as they do for physical health services, improving upon a well-known hole in America’s health care system, according to the White House.
The new policy is part of a broader push by Biden to improve mental health care in the United States — an issue he raised during one of his State of the Union speeches.
The proposed rule, which Biden announced on Tuesday afternoon, will attempt to enforce compliance from private insurers with a 2008 law that already requires equality between the way insurance companies cover mental health and physical health — but is hardly ever adhered to.
