A White House plan could help end decades of whack-a-mole between regulators and insurance companies over covering mental health and addiction treatment.
They still have to remain somewhat competitive though. Yes, you probably have to have health care but you don’t have to get health care from a specific company. In my state, Washington, we have a great public healthcare marketplace where a ton of companies compete. On top of that, you have private health care options through employers. On top of that, we have a push from https://wholewashington.org/ to make all of the state’s health care free. We also have had a lot of push into AppleHealth which is supposed to be free for people if they are a certain number under the FPL but I keep telling them I make 6 figures and they keep providing health insurance to my kids. So I guess the kids get free healthcare.
