White Paper from ProPublica on State Mental Health Regulations

September 3, 2024

ProPublica has released an additional white paper on mental health. This companion piece to the article sent last week (see previous announcement) reviews the ways that states do or do not have regulations about coverage for mental health treatment. This is based on the same problems identified in the paper titled “Why I Left the Network.”
