Tri-Agencies Release Fourth Mental Health Parity Report to Congress
On March 3, 2026, the Department of Labor (DOL), Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), and Department of the Treasury (TREAS) — collectively, the “Tri-Agencies” — published their fourth annual report to Congress on enforcement of the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA).

Plans and issuers must continue to maintain comprehensive compliance processes and documentation for MHPAEA compliance.
