Lawsuit challenges Biden-backed mental health benefits rule

Lawsuit challenges Biden-backed mental health benefits rule

  • A new lawsuit by a trade group for employers seeks to void a Biden administration-backed federal rule intended to help ensure that the estimated 175 million Americans with private health insurance have access to affordable mental health services.

The article discusses a lawsuit filed by the American Securities Association (ASA) against a new rule backed by the Biden administration aimed at enhancing mental health benefits. The rule, issued by the Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, and the Treasury, seeks to ensure that mental health and substance use disorder benefits are on par with medical and surgical benefits under group health plans. The ASA, representing financial services firms, argues that the rule exceeds the authority granted by the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act of 2008, potentially leading to increased costs and reduced benefits for plan participants. They claim the rule's requirements are overly burdensome and could result in employers dropping mental health coverage altogether. The lawsuit challenges the rule's validity, asserting it imposes new mandates not explicitly authorized by Congress.
