More MPS Advocacy on Parity Compliance Reporting
In a follow up to earlier comments on parity compliance reporting, the MPS and other Maryland Parity Coalition members sent a letter to the Maryland Insurance Administration (MIA) responding to their proposed templates and instructions for carriers to use in reporting the details of their compliance with the Parity Act. The letter includes several specific recommendations for improving the data that MIA will receive from carriers, including non-quantitative treatment limitations for mental health and for substance use disorder benefits, prior authorization and formularies, as well as provider reimbursement rates.
