This is a great report, and as one who dims fighting against the big insurance carriers this should motivate more American Seniors who are on Medicare (dis) Advantage.,write to your stat’s insurance commission, and other local and State politicians to get them upset enough to start bringing the issue of these ghost in-network lists up as a serious impediment to quality of care and the promise of a dignified retirement and life in our civil society. Thr greed and avarice of the big insurers who are motivate only by profit need to be excluded from offering insurance policies to Americans. Congress has to stop pandering to corporate interests and protect and defend the rights of their human constituents, NOT corporate people in return for campaign donations. The system is SICK and needs prompt action from our duly elected officials at all levels of Government. Apathy exists because the American people have been lied to by the Insurance Lobby and its propaganda campaigns.
Center for Medicare Services (taxpayers) are now paying private for profit health insurance companies at least $12,000 maybe up to $16,000 annually for each person buying part c plans. Disadvantage plans are corporate welfare.
This is an important issue, and it's not just mental health care. Ghost networks include (or don't include) all kinds of practices.

I agree it is corporate welfare at US taxpayers’ and patient’s expense being denied healthcare.
