The historical approach to mental health is not working.
In spite of our efforts:
- By 2030, the World Health Organization predicts that depression will be the leading cause of worker disability globally.
The annual costs for managing behavioral health in the U.S. are increasing twice as fast as all other medical expenses.
High risk for depression leads to a 48% increase in annual medical costs for employers ($ 2100 higher per employee per year).
Adults were more than 3x’s more likely to screen positive for mood disorders in 2020, compared to 2019.
The traditional approaches aren’t working:
- Employees are asking for mental health resources, yet EAP utilization is only 2-3%.
Mental health apps are prolific, yet their engagement isn’t much higher.
37% of Americans live in an area with a shortage of mental health providers.
It's time to rethink the way we approach employee mental health and wellbeing.
