DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - The Senate has approved a scaled-back measure requiring insurance companies to offer coverage for mental illnesses in much the same way they cover physical ailments.
Without debate, the Senate sent the measure to Gov. Tom Vilsack on Tuesday. Vilsack said he will sign the bill into law.
"This is a significant step forward," Vilsack said. "This is also an example of the good work that can be done when we work together in a bipartisan fashion focused on the needs of Iowans."
