Mental health cost comparison
This calculation compares mental health costs in the area of Romsås and Sagene on four major aspects: sick leave, disability benefits for mental health, medication and 24h stay in a mental hospital. This highlights the huge difference between the two areas in terms of mental health costs, rising to 63 million NOK.
This calculation aims to understand how much money we could save on mental health treatment if we would make Romsås as good of a neighbourhood as Sagene, assuming that the built environment has a big impact on well-being. The states, which are financing those four aspects, would then have a big interest in investing in the Mind Romsås DAO to make Romsås more healthy and thriving while saving a lot of money on mental health treatment.
