NCMB recognized for removing barriers to mental health treatment

NCMB is delighted to share that it has been named a 2024 Wellbeing First Champion by ALL IN: Wellbeing First for Healthcare. This annual distinction recognizes that NCMB’s license and renewal applications are free from intrusive and stigmatizing language around mental health care and treatment, a process NCMB completed in 2016 and 2017. The Board revised its applications to help ensure that licensed medical professionals can seek needed care without fear of losing their professional license.

NCMB’s license and renewal questionnaires have been independently reviewed and verified by ALL IN: Wellbeing First for Healthcare, a national coalition of leading health care organizations that works to eliminate barriers for health workers to obtain needed mental health care.
