The project aims to describe the extent of socioeconomic inequity in Australian mental healthcare use, identify the causal pathways that drive inequities, and conduct economic evaluations of programs aimed at increasing healthcare access. Microeconometric methods will be used to analyse large, longitudinal datasets that have not previously been used for this purpose. The project expects to provide a greater understanding of the barriers that people face in accessing treatment and how to overcome them. Such understanding is currently missing from academic literatures and policy inquiries. Ultimately, the research should aid in the design of cost-effective policies that improve health outcomes and that reduce inequities in treatment access.

该项目旨在描述澳大利亚精神卫生保健使用中社会经济不平等的程度，确定导致不平等的因果路径，并对旨在增加医疗保健可及性的计划进行经济评估。微观计量经济学方法将用于分析以前未用于此目的的大型纵向数据集。该项目希望让人们更好地了解人们在获得治疗方面面临的障碍以及如何克服这些障碍。目前学术文献和政策调查中缺乏这种理解。最终，该研究应有助于设计具有成本效益的政策，以改善健康结果并减少治疗机会的不平等。
