The recently passed Mental Health Parity Act mandates equivalent coverage for mental health and physical health.  Employers can view mental health parity as a set of rules to comply with, or they can use it as an opportunity to reevaluate their entire approach to behavioral health. 

Join this distinguished panel on June 25 to review the provisions of the legislation, and more importantly, the impact for health plans and employers.  This panel will discuss the likely impact of parity not only on health care costs and benefit management, but also on service delivery, quality of care, and clinical outcomes.  We will look more deeply into the true cost of treating and not treating mental health problems, correcting some common misperceptions in the process.  Lastly, we will offer our "best practices" and recommendations on how best to reduce the health care costs and lost productivity associated with behavioral health problems.
