Abstract
Employer-sponsored health plans typically provide less coverage for mental health and substance abuse treatment than for medical or surgical treatment. The merits and costs of mandating parity, or equivalent coverage, for insurance benefits for mental health and substance abuse treatment have been a recent topic of significant public debate. This article presents cost estimates for a variety of comprehensive parity mandates, including parity for different diagnoses, benefit provisions, and types of health insurance delivery systems.
