Abstract

Mental health advocates from across Georgia gathered at the state Capitol last week for a “Rally for Parity,” urging Insurance Commissioner John King to fully enforce the state's Mental Health Parity Act, HB 1013. The rally comes on the heels of King's announcement that his office will fine 22 health insurance companies a combined $20'million for over 6,000 violations of the law — marking the first major enforcement action since the legislation was signed in 2022.

乔治亚州呼吁全面执行“历史性”MH平等法
上周,来自乔治亚州各地的精神健康倡导者聚集在州议会大厦,举行了一场“平等集会”,敦促保险专员约翰·金(John King)全面执行该州的《精神健康平等法案》(HB 1013)。此前,马丁·路德·金宣布,他的办公室将对22家医疗保险公司处以总计2000万美元的罚款,原因是这些公司违反了6000多项法律,这是自2022年该法案签署以来的首次重大执法行动。
