Mental health inequities may not only harm individuals but also hinder economic prosperity.1 To gain a broader understanding of the costs associated with mental health inequities in the United States, the Deloitte Health Equity Institute and the School of Global Health at Meharry Medical College conducted an equity-focused quantitative analysis. The study examined various types of expenditures related to mental health inequities that have not been explored in detail in other literature, ranging from chronic physical ailments like diabetes and hypertension to productivity-related losses stemming from absenteeism and unemployment.
