WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden’s administration on Tuesday announced new rules meant to push insurance companies to increase their coverage of mental health treatments.

The new regulations, which still need to go through a public comment period, would require insurers to study whether their customers have equal access to medical and mental health benefits and to take remedial action, if necessary. The Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act requires that insurers provide the same level of coverage for both mental and physical health care — though the administration and advocates argue insurers’ policies restrict patient access.

I think president potato head is just feeling guilty about all the mental illnesses he has caused the American people over the past two years.
 
All mental problems are organic.
Even if they're post trauma manifestations, detrimental physical phenomena occurred in the brain.
That's why MD psychiatrists are more effective than psychologist-therapists.

Mental illness should be covered like every other kind of illness.

The REAL problem is private sector medical insurance.

We need a National Health Service similar to the United Kingdom's.

People put down monarchies even as they provide an obviously better standard of living than we can manage.
