Mental Health Parity Enhancement Act of 1999 (HR2445) AB 88

[Guest kclark]

Has anyone heard whether or not the legislative bill mandating several changes to dollar limits and, mental health inpatient days, outpatient visits and copay limits pertaining to mental health coverages has been approved?

The latest major action was as of 8/6/99 when it was referred to the House subcommittee.

Effective date is listed as for plan years beginning on or after 7/1/2000, which would make the effective date 1/1/2001?

Thanks.
