1996年9月颁布的Domenici-Wellstone修正案要求取消私人保险对精神保健覆盖面的某些限制,这被誉为在寻求精神保健覆盖面“平等”方面迈出的重要一步。平等立法正在一些州的立法机构提出,并在国会找到了新的热情。在本文中,我们认为这些法律的效率的理由,并检查其可能产生的影响,在管理式医疗的时代。我们的结论是,虽然这样的成功代表了重要的政治事件,他们可能只提供小的收益在保险市场的效率和公平。
The enactment of the Domenici-Wellstone amendment in September 1996, which calls for the elimination of certain limits on coverage for mental health care under private insurance, is being hailed as a major step forward in the quest for "parity" in mental health coverage. Parity legislation is being introduced in a number of state legislatures and is finding new enthusiasm in Congress. In this paper we consider the efficiency rationale for these laws and examine their likely impact in the era of managed care. We conclude that although such successes represent important political events, they may offer only small gains in the efficiency and fairness of insurance markets.
