| Abstract |
Because of work's contribution to recovery, governments have moved to improve employment rates of people with severe mental disorders (SMDs). Social enterprises (SEs) have been identified as a means to achieve employment. In Ontario, Canada, the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care (MOHLTC) have provided SEs government subsidies. Public funding arrangements create a potential trade-off for governments that must decide how to distribute constrained budgets to meet a variety of public needs. In Ontario, the government is potentially faced with choosing between supporting employment versus healthcare services. This study addresses the question, are there significant differences in service use and costs from the MOHLTC's perspective for people with SMDs working in SEs versus those who are not working and looking for work? Our results indicate there is a significant difference in healthcare use between the two groups suggesting there could be less healthcare use associated with SE employment. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 11 February 2019.
All research outputs
#14,107,269
of 23,047,237 outputs
Outputs from Community Mental Health Journal
#698
of 1,295 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#179,279
of 327,709 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Community Mental Health Journal
#10
of 29 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,047,237 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 37th percentile – i.e., 37% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,295 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.9. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 327,709 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 29 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 62% of its contemporaries.
