Ask HN: How to incentivize payers/employers/govt to invest in mental health?
I posted this article about the moral urgency of mental health

A HN user replied with a comment I found interesting
> This doesn't touch on a potentially even bigger barrier to adoption of better mental health care: that those who benefit from better mental health care often aren't the people paying for it, and that it is really really hard to measure the specific financial benefits of improving mental health in a way that will convince payers / employers / government to actually put real money on the line

How would you incentivize payers/employers/govt to put $ into mental health?
