Bharat including the Health and Wellness Centers and the health insurance coverage are crucial in reducing the adverse impact of mental disorders at the population level across India. Community-level mental health care and integration of mental health services with other aspects of health care should receive high priority from state governments to improve mental health promotion and care."

The contribution of mental disorders to the total disease burden in India in terms of DALYs increased from 2.5% in 1990 to 4.7% in 2017. Mental disorders were the leading contributor in India to years lived with disability (YLDs), contributing 14.5% of all YLDs in 2017. Prof Christopher J L Murray Director, Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation said "Before state governments can invest substantially more in mental health services, it is imperative that health officials have an accurate accounting of how depression, anxiety, and other mental disorders are distributed across the country. This study provides a crucial first step in determining state-by-state need."
