"I am pleased that President Obama recently committed to finalizing the mental health parity regulations."

"Individuals with mental illnesses tend to have lower incomes, higher health care expenditures, and are more likely to be enrolled in public insurance programs like Medicaid."

"It is unfortunate that it takes a tragedy on the scale of Sandy Hook, Tucson, Aurora or Virginia Tech to refocus our attention on the need for better access to mental health services."

"CMS must attend to mental health needs better in both Medicare and Medicaid."
