mental health

Those who enjoy sound physical and mental health or are able to get adequate treatment when they need it are likely to be more productive, advance faster in their careers, earn higher incomes and enjoy a better quality of life throughout their adult years.

SB07-036 would require insurance companies doing business in Colorado to cover mental illness and mental disorders as they would physical illnesses. The bill would extend coverage to mental disorders such as post-traumatic stress disorder, social phobia and chemical dependency.
