Mental Health Insurance Reform Task Force
Strategic enforcement · Collective pressure · Structural reform
A national, provider-led coalition coordinating state and federal strategy around two equal pillars: enforcing mental health parity laws and fair reimbursement, and confronting the consolidation that lets insurers and platforms own the networks, the data, and the rules. We build collective power to reshape who controls behavioral health and return that power to providers and the communities they serve. Membership spans all 50 states and the District of Columbia.
Get InvolvedWhat We Do
Legislation and Enforcement
Strategic focus on non-enforcement of parity violations. We track bills, analyze enforcement gaps, and support legislative advocacy at state and federal levels.
Provider Tools
Accessible complaint templates, grievance guides, and practical resources for providers navigating denials, clawbacks, and credentialing barriers.
Community Mobilization
Monthly national meetings, state roundtables, and ongoing virtual gatherings where providers share experiences and build collective strategy.
Education and Research
Policy analysis, public education, and documentation of systemic patterns so providers, clients, and communities can understand and challenge the systems affecting their access to care.
What appears on paper as billing and administrative policy often operates in practice as a system of access restriction. MHIRTF exists to challenge those conditions directly.
