NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Hedonia, an innovator in mobile mental health solutions, has unveiled new findings from its recent economic model demonstrating that Hedonia has the potential to drive 5:1 return on investment (ROI) for employers, payors, and healthcare solution providers.

纽约--（商业新闻短讯）--Hedonia是移动心理健康解决方案的创新者，它公布了最近经济模型的新发现，表明Hedonia有可能为雇主、付款人和医疗保健解决方案提供商带来5:1的投资回报（ROI）。

The study, which was conducted in partnership with Arbital Health, a technology company leading the way in managing the complexities of value-based contract design, measurement, and adjudication, demonstrates that utilizing Hedonia’s groundbreaking digital therapeutic tool, Mood Bloom™, designed to treat depression and anxiety, has the potential to reduce costs and provide exceptional ROI..

这项研究是与Arbital Health合作进行的，Arbital Health是一家领先于管理基于价值的合同设计、测量和裁决复杂性的技术公司，它表明利用Hedonia开创性的数字治疗工具Mood Bloom™来治疗抑郁症和焦虑症，有可能降低成本并提供优异的投资回报率。。

The model was based on the peer-reviewed findings of Hedonia's clinical trials at Massachusetts General Hospital. The clinical trials reported, among other findings, a 45% reduction in depressive symptoms, further supporting the app's ability to deliver both clinical and financial improvements.

该模型基于马萨诸塞州总医院Hedonia临床试验的同行评审结果。临床试验报告，除其他发现外，抑郁症状减少了45%，进一步支持了该应用程序提供临床和财务改善的能力。

For example, a 20,000 person organization that offers Hedonia’s therapeutic gaming app to their members can expect a total cost savings of over a half a million dollars annually. This level of cost savings and ROI are the result of Mood Bloom’s high engagement rates, which are significantly above industry standard..

例如，一个拥有20000人的组织向其成员提供Hedonia的治疗性游戏应用程序，预计每年可节省50多万美元的总成本。这种程度的成本节约和投资回报率是Mood Bloom高参与率的结果，这大大高于行业标准。。

Mood Bloom is built on a proprietary therapeutic approach called Facilitating Thought Progression (FTP). FTP uses simple exercises to create new mental habits that work to reduce symptoms of depression. These FTP-based exercises are embedded into a fun and entertaining gaming experience. This unique approach of science-plus-gaming has shown to improve engagement, thus adherence..

情绪绽放建立在一种专有的治疗方法上，称为促进思想进步（FTP）。。这些基于FTP的练习被嵌入到有趣且有趣的游戏体验中。这种独特的科学加游戏方法已经证明可以提高参与度，从而提高依从性。。

Other Key Findings Include:

其他主要发现包括：

Members with depression or anxiety incur twice the total healthcare costs compared to individuals without these mental health conditions.

与没有这些心理健康状况的人相比，患有抑郁症或焦虑症的成员承担的医疗保健总费用是其两倍。

At least 20% of these total healthcare costs are directly related to mental health treatment, indicating the financial burden mental health places on employers and insurers.

这些医疗保健总费用中至少有20%与心理健康治疗直接相关，这表明心理健康给雇主和保险公司带来了经济负担。

Members who have chronic conditions alongside depression or anxiety experience a 40% higher total cost of care, further exacerbating the economic impact.

患有抑郁症或焦虑症的慢性病患者的总护理费用增加了40%，进一步加剧了经济影响。

Transitioning patients to less severe mental health states through Mood Bloom resulted in measurable cost savings.

通过情绪爆发将患者转变为不太严重的心理健康状态，可以节省可观的成本。

The study's economic model, developed by Arbital Health, calculated the ROI by estimating the financial savings associated with Mood Bloom’s ability to improve mental health outcomes. The model showed that employers could realize significant cost reductions by adopting Hedonia’s program, which transitions patients from more severe states of mental illness to less severe conditions, thereby reducing overall treatment costs..

该研究的经济模型由Arbital Health开发，通过估计与情绪爆发改善心理健康结果的能力相关的财务节省来计算投资回报率。该模型表明，雇主可以通过采用Hedonia的计划实现显着的成本降低，该计划将患者从更严重的精神疾病状态转变为不太严重的状态，从而降低整体治疗成本。。

“This study confirms what we have long believed: effective mental health solutions with low barriers to entry like Mood Bloom can not only improve patient outcomes but also deliver substantial financial returns for employers,” said Samuel Keret, Chief Executive Officer of Hedonia. “We’re excited to see the real-world impact of our app, both in terms of patient health and economic savings.”.

Hedonia首席执行官塞缪尔·科雷特（SamuelKeret）表示：“这项研究证实了我们长期以来的观点：有效的心理健康解决方案，如情绪高涨等低门槛进入，不仅可以改善患者的预后，还可以为雇主带来可观的经济回报。”。“我们很高兴看到我们的应用程序在患者健康和经济节约方面产生的现实影响。”。

Ian Duncan, Chief Actuary at Arbital Health, commented, “The economic model we built with Hedonia provides a valuable tool for employers looking to reduce the financial burden of mental health conditions. By leveraging the observed peer-reviewed outcomes data and clinical findings, we were able to create a customizable ROI calculator that can be tailored to different employer populations, allowing them to see firsthand the cost savings potential.”.

Arbital Health首席精算师伊恩·邓肯（Ian Duncan）评论道：“我们用Hedonia建立的经济模型为寻求减轻心理健康状况财务负担的雇主提供了一个有价值的工具。通过利用观察到的同行评审结果数据和临床发现，我们能够创建一个可定制的ROI计算器，可以针对不同的雇主人群进行定制，使他们能够直接看到节省成本的潜力。”。

The study utilized data from the 2022 MarketScan Database, analyzing the cost patterns among members diagnosed with depression and anxiety. It examined the financial impact of Mood Bloom using detailed cost estimates from large U.S. employers, showing the program’s capacity to improve mental health outcomes while significantly reducing costs..

这项研究利用了2022年MarketScan数据库的数据，分析了被诊断患有抑郁症和焦虑症的成员的成本模式。它利用美国大型雇主的详细成本估算，研究了情绪高涨对财务的影响，显示了该计划在显著降低成本的同时改善心理健康状况的能力。。

Additional Highlights:

其他亮点：

The program demonstrates its highest potential savings in populations with high rates of depression, anxiety, and chronic conditions. It should be noted that depression and anxiety often go undiagnosed or unreported. Therefore, the impact of a program like Mood Bloom could be even higher than the model reports, when offered to the entire membership base..

。应该注意的是，抑郁症和焦虑症通常未被诊断或未报告。因此，当向整个会员群体提供类似Mood Bloom的计划时，其影响甚至可能比模型报告更大。。

25% of members with chronic conditions (such as diabetes, COPD, and heart disease) are also diagnosed with depression or anxiety, presenting a clear opportunity for Mood Bloom to positively affect both mental and physical health outcomes.

25%的慢性病（如糖尿病，COPD和心脏病）患者也被诊断出患有抑郁症或焦虑症，这为情绪高涨提供了一个明显的机会，对心理和身体健康产生积极影响。

Reduction in symptoms of depression and anxiety can have additional benefits outside of medical costs, such cost savings that come from improvements in productivity. According to a study in the Annals of Family Medicine, productivity loss (presenteeism + absenteeism) goes from 29% for those with mild depression all the way up to 51% productivity loss for those with severe depression.

减少抑郁和焦虑症状可以带来医疗费用之外的额外好处，这种成本节约来自生产力的提高。根据《家庭医学年鉴》的一项研究，轻度抑郁症患者的生产力损失（出勤+缺勤）从29%一直上升到重度抑郁症患者的51%。

By transitioning members to less severe mental health states, productivity improves..

通过将成员转变为不太严重的心理健康状态，生产力得到提高。。

With mental health disorders continuing to rise, Hedonia’s Mood Bloom offers a scalable, effective, and financially sound solution for employers aiming to improve employee well-being while controlling healthcare costs.

随着心理健康障碍持续上升，Hedonia的情绪爆发为雇主提供了一个可扩展、有效且经济合理的解决方案，旨在改善员工福利，同时控制医疗保健成本。
