The number of people using Medicare-subsidised mental health services has doubled in the past the decade, with one in 10 Australians accessing services in 2018/19. This was expected to bring the nation's mental health spending to beyond $10 billion per year, according to Australian Institute of Health and Welfare data. The 2017/18 figures reveal an average of $400 per person was spent. Mental health-related prescriptions were distributed to 17.1 per cent, with the majority of those antidepressants.
