Admissions
This partial hospitalization service can effectively treat pre-teen to young adult males and females who meet the following criteria:
- Have a primary diagnosis of an eating disorder
- Demonstrate a willingness to receive treatment and a desire to recover
- Have been declared medically stable by a licensed physician
An initial telephone needs assessment with the prospective patient starts the admission process. Based on a review of this assessment and
a fax of recent lab results, a psychiatrist will recommend an appropriate level of care. After the review, admissions staff will contact the
individual and share the psychiatrist's recommendation.
Insurance Coverage
As a courtesy to prospective patients, admissions staff will contact the individual’s insurance carrier to obtain a quote of insurance benefits.
Benefit availability, service providers, and medical necessity criteria vary with each insurance plan. We recommend that potential patients
check with their medical insurance carrier to determine what is covered and if there are any exclusions. After admission, Patient Care
Specialists can provide assistance with remaining questions or concerns.
We provide free, confidential needs assessments
and referral recommendations.
