Issue: Despite steps to end discrimination in health insurance in recent years, such discrimination against those living with mental health and addiction needs continues. Inadequate treatment for mental health and addiction disorders costs US businesses hundreds of billions of dollars each year and millions of people suffer as a result.

Action: Improve upon Timothy’s Law, enacted in 2006, to completely eradicate discrimination in all health insurance through complete coverage for people, regardless of the size of their employer, particular mental health diagnoses, and to include those with addiction treatment needs.
