- Title
Voices from the Picket Lines: the Strike at Kaiser Continues.
- Authors
Winslow, Cal
- Abstract
Just this year, the California State Senate passed a law sponsored by NUHW, SB 221, which requires HMOs like Kaiser to provide follow-up mental health care appointments within 10 business days if recommended by a therapist. The union and its members have from the beginning joined other mental health campaigners in advocating for patients and in exposing Kaiser's negligence, while calling for parity with medical health care and supporting the rights of mental health care patients. The strike of 2000 Kaiser Permanente mental health care providers is now in its seventh week.
