On September 9, 2024, the U.S. Departments of Labor, Treasury, and Health and Human Services released a final rule implementing the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act of 2008 (MHPAEA). The rule clarifies and codifies the heightened standards that health plans and issuers are held to in documenting and ensuring MHPAEA compliance, amidst a landscape of increased regulatory enforcement and MHPAEA investigations. Given this heightened focus, it’s critical that plans and issuers proactively ensure compliance before regulators request required compliance documentation.
Join us for a webinar where we’ll delve into the new provisions of the rule, proactive steps for compliance, and expected enforcement and governmental trends in the coming months. Crowell & Moring’s Alice Hall-Partyka, Chris Flynn, Megan Beaver, Mike Lieberman and Spencer Bruck will share their significant experience assisting plans and issuers with proactive MHPAEA compliance and representing them through governmental inquiries and investigations.
Key Takeaways:
- Understand the new MHPAEA rule and its implications
- Learn proactive strategies for compliance and documentation
- Stay informed about enforcement trends and governmental activity
- Gain insights from experienced professionals in MHPAEA compliance and investigations

The federal government has identified purported ‘waste, fraud, and abuse’ in small business programs as a major focus of its current enforcement efforts. As it relates to federal procurement, we have seen audits and investigations rolled out not only of active participants in the Small Business Administration’s 8(a) Business Development Program but also reviews of various types of small business contracts (such as 8(a) sole source and set-aside awards, preference-based awards, and small business set-aside awards over particular values). Join Crowell & Moring as we discuss what aspects of contract performance and teaming arrangements are being scrutinized (e.g., size/status eligibility, limitations on subcontracting compliance, reasonableness of market rates, etc.) and how these considerations can impact both small government contractors holding the prime contracts under review and their subcontractors.
