On the mend: Favorable economic trends are expected to boost clinic revenue growth

The United States has faced a rising incidence of eating disorders, and eating disorder clinics have provided services to meet the need. However, most individuals suffering from an eating disorder do not receive treatment because of the high costs, lack of information about or stigma associated with treatment. Many public and private health insurers either limit their coverage of eating disorder treatments or exclude it altogether, creating a financial barrier to treatment and industry growth.
