Comprehensive mental health benefits: a sound investment.
Mental health and substance abuse disorders are as prevalent among Americans as disorders affecting physical health; therefore, no comprehensive health reform program can be enacted that does not include coverage for mental health services.

Several changes in how mental health services are delivered and financed can ensure access under a reformed health system.
