Accelerating Cognitive Therapy Implementation On a National Scale (ACTIONS)

抑郁和焦虑给我们公民的生活带来了难以形容的痛苦，并严重减少了预期寿命和机会，每6人中就有1人受到影响，在他们的一生中有25%受到影响。2020年有超过1000万例常见心理健康问题的记录。伦敦政治经济学院表示，心理健康每年花费英国经济1180亿GB，而德勤估计，由此导致的工作场所缺勤和出勤成本为450亿GB。该项目聚焦于轻、中度抑郁和/或焦虑的人，评估了一种新的交付模式，该模式鼓励自我管理心理健康，使用先进的计算来整合安全、数据驱动的数字和人类干预。它消除了等待治疗的需要，满足了IAPT计划的最低结果，并提供了证据，使进一步的投资能够在英国范围内升级我们的解决方案。对于个人来说，这项建议将：*消除等待时间*提供一种替代开抗抑郁药的方法*为个体所接受*为从业者和治疗师所接受*拓宽患者选择*增加心理健康护理的自我管理*还将*满足现有IAPT服务的公布结果*以或低于现有IAPT服务的价位提供*在国家、区域或地方基础*确定需要什么投资才能实现这一点这个项目的结果将改变未来提供抑郁症和焦虑症服务的方式，将知识、工具和机会掌握在个人手中，使他们能够在目前等待现有服务看到的时间内实现康复这将为个人和国家带来巨大的社会和经济利益。

Depression and anxiety cause untold misery on our citizens' lives and severely reduce both life expectancy and opportunity, affecting 1 in 6 people in any given week and 25% in their lifetime. Over 10 million episodes of common mental health problems were recorded in 2020\. The London School of Economics state that mental health costs the UK economy £118bn annually while Deloitte estimate a £45bn cost to employers of the resulting workplace absenteeism and presenteeism.Focusing on people with Mild and Moderate Depression and/or Anxiety this project assesses a novel delivery model that encourages the self-management of mental wellbeing, using advanced computing to integrate secure, data-driven digital and human interventions. It removes the need to wait for treatment, meets minimum outcomes of the IAPT initiative and provides evidence to enable further investment to upscale our solution UK-wide.For individuals this proposal will:* Eliminate waiting times* Provide an alternative to being prescribing antidepressants* Be acceptable to the individual* Be acceptable to Practitioners and Therapists* Broaden patient choice* Increase self-management of mental health careIt will also* Meet the published outcomes of existing IAPT services* Be delivered at or below the price point of existing IAPT services* Provide a long-term solution that is scalable and affordable on a National, Regional or Local basis* Identify what investment would be required to deliver thisThe outcomes of this project will transform how services for depression and anxiety will be provided in the future by placing the knowledge, tools and opportunity into the hands of the individual so that they can achieve recovery in the time they currently wait to be seen by existing services This will bring about significant social and economic benefit to both the individual and the nation.
