What it does
The Parity Enforcement Act of 2025 would establish civil monetary penalties for violations of mental health and substance use disorder parity requirements under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). It expands liability to include plan sponsors, service providers, plan administrators, and issuers of group health plans who fail to meet parity standards related to mental health and substance use disorder benefits. The bill also amends ERISA’s enforcement provisions to allow penalties for these violations and specifies that the requirements apply to plan years beginning more than one year after enactment.
