Adequately funded universal healthcare would, yes. We have universal healthcare here in the UK but it has been starved of resources and doesn’t pay it’s key staff well at all. No one here questions the quality of the staff - from cleaners all the way up to senior consultants - the vast majority who work in the NHS are dedicated, compassionate highly skilled people but without resources and funding it can feel pointless.
Mental health takes a distinct back seat. The waiting list just for an assessment and diagnosis for ADHD for example is 2 years.
Everyone already knew that, yes, but in order to get these who control the purse strings to yield cash to address it, it needs formalising.
Universal health care would solve the problem. As would a (gasp) UBI.
