For months, as the COVID-19 pandemic has raged, Florida First Lady Casey DeSantis and top state officials have warned about a looming mental-health crisis because of job losses, lockdowns and school closures.
The Legislature might take a small step in trying to determine the fallout.
House and Senate insurance panels this week unanimously approved bills that would require health insurers and HMOs to provide a link to a state consumer website so customers can submit any complaints about their ability to obtain mental-health and substance-abuse care.
Under the proposals (SB 1024 and HB 701), the Department of Financial Services would have to annually report to the governor and legislative leaders the number of complaints submitted and how they were resolved. The first report would be due in January 2022.
