Mental Health Parity Legislation and Debate
[ send me this essay ]
A 15 page paper discussing the 2001 Mental Health Equitable Treatment Act and possible ways of effecting social change in favor of adopting the act's requirements for parity in health insurance payment for both mental and physical healthcare. The most liberal among us would cling to the view that all should be served despite cost, but the moderate liberals of today realize that cost issues do exist, that no faction has unlimited financial resources and so must make choices. Conservatives tend to look at what can be done with the funds available, considering cost issues first. An astute cost-benefit analysis should be able to lessen the fears of conservatives while bringing the most liberal to a point of fiscal reality. When that occurs, then each side should be freer to indulge in creativity in formulating other and valuable options that as yet have not been voiced. Bibliography lists 12 sources.

It is not for the profits. The profits follow, and if we have remembered that, they have never failed to appear.” The company has significant strengths and relatively few weaknesses but like all other modern businesses must also be willing and able to adapt to organizational change and opportunity.
