Depression Rises as Pandemic Lingers

Depression cases among adults jumped from 7% to 30.2% over the length of the pandemic, according to a recent Household Pulse Survey by the U.S. Census Bureau. What do these numbers mean for employers and their workforce? It means health care costs are on the rise.

Pinnacle’s Uplift: Overcoming Depression program equips participants with coping techniques to better manage the symptoms of depression, improving their quality of life and reducing long-term medical costs.
