Mental Health Law Codes
National Conference of State Legislatures (NCSL)
This resource discusses costs, coverage, and availability of our mental health
medical care (NCSL, 2017). These laws are divided into three categories. The first is
Mental Health "Parity" or Equal Coverage Laws. This entails that insurers or health care
service plans are prohibited from discriminating between coverage. The second,
Minimum Mandated Mental Health Benefit Laws, requires many states to provide some
form of coverage for mental illnesses since these states have allowed for discrepancies
within the level of benefits. Finally, the third law, Mental Health "Mandated Offering
Laws," requires that you do not have to provide any benefits at all (NCSL, 2017).
