| 97-33263 | HIPAA Mental Health Parity Act | Proposed Rule | Elsewhere in this issue of the Federal Register, the IRS is issuing temporary regulations relating to mental health parity requirements imposed on group health plans. These requirements were added to the Internal Revenue Code by section 1532 of the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997. The IRS is issuing the temporary regulations at the same time that the Pension and Welfare Benefits Administration of the U.S. Department of Labor and the Health Care Financing Administration of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services are issuing substantially similar interim final regulations relating to mental health parity requirements added by the Mental Health Parity Act of 1996 to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and the Public Health Service Act. The temporary regulations provide guidance to employers and group health plans relating to the new mental health parity requirements. The text of those temporary regulations also serves as the text of these proposed regulations. | 1997-12-22 | 1997 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1997/12/22/97-33263/hipaa-mental-health-parity-act | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1997-12-22/pdf/97-33263.pdf | Treasury Department; Internal Revenue Service | 497,254 | Elsewhere in this issue of the Federal Register, the IRS is issuing temporary regulations relating to mental health parity requirements imposed on group health plans.
