New Standards for Mental Health Parity Under the Final MHPAEA Rules

Tuesday, November 19
1 pm–2 pm ET

The final rules for mental health parity under the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA) that were published this fall are notably different from the proposed rules published last year by the Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services and the Treasury.

New Standards for Mental Health Parity Under the Final MHPAEA Rules

The final rules amend the longstanding 2013 final rules and establish new standards for nonquantitative treatment limitations (NQTLs), including implementing the additional documented comparative analyses requirements that were added through the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2020. The final rules contain additional definitions, call for coverage of core treatments for covered mental health and substance use (MH/SUD) conditions and require collection and review of data outcomes.

Attend our webinar to learn the specifics behind the final rules and what they mean for your health plan.

The webinar will cover:

  • A deeper look into the new MHPAEA rules, including the new standards for imposing NQTLs on MH/SUD conditions
  • How the new rules impact your plan
  • The first steps plans should take to be in compliance
