"we must prioritize affordable, high-quality mental health services" sounds great. will vote for her
Sound like op is straight up lying or recklessly doing the work of trolls to spread misinformation.
Warren's Medicare 4 All plan covers mental health benefits.

This doesn't make a lot of sense to me, but maybe it's because no single act of her plan should be read by itself, and should all be considered as a whole. This act by itself doesn't seem like much, but the potential is there.
Is this normal to introduce something where the language in it isn't yet defined? How do you vote to pass something that doesn't define regulations, but instead says 6 months after they'll be introduced?
Warren released a detailed Medicare 4 All plan this past week, and it says right there that her plan covers mental health benefits.
Which you didn't read or failed to comprehend. That was her original healthcare page. She highlighted certain issues - like prescription drugs and mental health. She did NOT say they wouldn't be covered under her plan. That's a false leap you made.
And in the plan she released this week, it says more specifically that her plan covers mental health benefits.

Elizabeth's Medicare for All plan gives everyone good insurance and cuts their health care costs to nearly zero -- without increasing middle-class taxes one penny.

Uh, "hold insurers accountable"? There would effectively be no insurers under a M4A plan as all services would be covered.
I'm not familiar with the details of her plan, it does effectively eliminate all private health insurance outside of things like supplemental for plastic surgery, like the Sanders bill correct?

They are. Which is why it's great that they're both covered under Warren's Medicare For All plan.
Also covered:
long-term care
audio
vision
in addition to "medical" as traditionally defined under current Medicare.
If I read one more leftist show fight over Bernie vs. Liz on M4A, I'm gonna lose my mind.
Both plans are make-believe shell games because neither of them wants to say out loud what has to happen for American health care to join the rest of the developed world. But every time you attack one of these candidates on behalf of the other, you're doing health care lobbyists' job for them. Just stop.

Well, guess I have to vote for Bernie now, lest I make a mistake and vote for Trump-lite.
I won't vote for Bernie, unless he's winning. At least I don't have to worry about that though.
