Mental Health Parity Enforcement and Funding Act

This bill strengthens the enforcement of mental health and substance use disorder parity rules under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. It expands the scope of penalties to include plan sponsors, service providers, and administrators who fail to meet existing parity requirements, while also adding a specific category for genetic information violations. To support these enforcement efforts, the legislation appropriates $30 million annually from 2027 through 2031 to the Employee Benefits Security Administration. These changes apply to group health plans starting one year after the law is enacted.
