11 Mental Health Parity Comparable to & No more restrictive than Example: A plan has a prior authorization requirement for MH/SUD, but not for medical / surgical benefit The plan violates the MHPAEA because the offering of MH/SUD services cannot be more restrictive than those for medical / surgical
