Mental health benefits and other medical benefits parity required, and accountability from commissioners of health and commerce required. This bill defines nonquantitative treatment limitations and requires all health plans to
apply them in the same manner for mental health and substance use disorder treatment
as they apply them for medical and surgical benefits. Health plans must classify mental
health visits and medication maintenance visits as primary care for purposes of enrollee
cost sharing. This bill also requires health plans to share certain information with the
commissioner to ensure enforcement occurs, and for the commissioner to issue an
annual report.
