Medicare would pay more for mental health services, helping more people get care.
This bill, called the COMPLETE Care Act, would increase Medicare payments for certain mental health services given by primary care doctors. This aims to get more doctors to offer these services, making it easier for Medicare patients to get combined mental and physical health care starting in 2027. The government would also offer help to practices that want to add these services.
Today, Medicare Part B pays for mental health services in primary care under existing rules, without specific increased payments to encourage integration. After this bill, Medicare would pay 175 percent of the usual amount for certain integrated mental health services in 2027, 150 percent in 2028, and 125 percent in 2029. Also, the government would offer help to primary care practices to adopt these services, which is not a current mandate.
