1. New York to overhaul Medicaid mental health care for children under landmark settlement

The settlement stems from C.K. v. McDonald, a federal class action lawsuit filed in 2022 alleging the state Departments of Health and Mental Health failed to provide legally required, community-based care for children, forcing some into harmful situations or leaving them without help altogether.
