Great News for Mental Health!
Gov. Murphy Signs Parity Bill into Law

Governor Phil Murphy recently signed parity legislation into law. The legislation expands coverage to include all mental health conditions and sub-stance use disorders, as opposed to only biologically based mental illnesses, as was the case in earlier statutes. It also requires health plans to meet all of the requirements of the federal Paul Wellstone and Pete Domenici Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act of 2008 (MHPAEA). That act requires health insurers that cover mental health and substance use treatment to do so at the same levels as they do for medical and surgical care. The new law also requires insurers to submit annual reports to the Department of Banking and Insurance (DOBI) concerning compliance with the bill’s provisions, especially with respect to the use of non-quantitative treatment limitations. In addition, the bill requires DOBI to implement and enforce applicable provisions of the MHPAEA and to issue reports to the Legislature detailing the Department’s oversight of the law’s provisions.

Actor/AIR Advisory Board Member Carrie Gunzel Joins Tricia Baker at Red Bank Regional High School  

When AIR Co-founder Tricia Baker recently presented Coming Up for AIR at Red Bank Regional High School, she brought a couple surprise treats for the students: actor/writer/producer Carrie Gunzel, who recently joined AIR's Advisory Board, and her dog Daphne.

"I had a great time joining in on Tricia's programming at Red Bank Regional High School. It was great to share my story and message with the freshman class and bring Daphne in to meet and connect with the students afterwards. We both had a great afternoon," Carrie said.  

Carrie is most recognized for her work as “Skye Chandler” on All My Children , as well as two memorable Supernatural episodes, “Bugs” and “Just My Imagination." Some of her credits also include Wizards of Waverly Place, Smallville, Watchen and Jennifer's Body .
