1. Bringing the evidence together: Findings on the economic case for preventing mental ill health 12

The scale of mental ill health is a serious concern 15

Mental ill health places a significant burden on health, quality of life and the broader economy 21

Policies and strategies are in place to improve mental health across OECD countries, with a focus on schools, workplaces and primary care settings 25

Investments in evidence-based actions to prevent mental ill health contribute positively to population health and the economy 29

To achieve impact at scale, implementing effective interventions is not enough: Cross-sectoral action and a stronger focus on best practice design are needed 34

2. Trends and patterns in mental ill health 43

Mental ill health is a public health concern and has negative impacts on both individuals and the broader economy 44

Rates of mental ill health are high and trending higher 45

Several recent events and factors have adversely affected mental health 51

Mental ill health is inequitably distributed by gender, age, income and socio-economic status 56

Trends and patterns can be seen in access to and unmet needs for mental health services 62

Mental ill health shortens healthy life expectancy by an average of 2.5 years and causes around 28,000 premature deaths annually across EU countries 81

Mental ill health will account for 6% of total health expenditure in EU countries, assuming current levels of treatment coverage 84

Closing the treatment gap: Calculating the financial implications of extending coverage for mental ill health 85

Mental ill health affects workforce productivity through increased absenteeism, presenteeism, unemployment and early retirement 86

Significant economic losses result from mental ill health through reduced workforce productivity 88

4. Policies to prevent and treat mental ill health 92

Mental health has increasingly become an international priority 93

In recent decades, some OECD countries have introduced national programmes to expand community-based care 96

A mental health intervention matrix has been developed, covering mechanism, place, objective and delivery mode 98

5. The cost-effectiveness of a suite of mental health policy options 130

Investments in evidence-based interventions to promote mental health contribute positively to population health and the economy 132

Six interventions to improve mental health, and prevent and treat mental ill health were identified and modelled 134

Scaling up the six interventions to increase population coverage enhances people's lives 137

The case for investing in interventions to improve mental health and to prevent and treat mental ill health 147

Cross-sectoral action, best-practice design and high coverage are required to achieve meaningful impact 152
