Resources to support your patients affected by eating disorders
Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, we’ve seen an increase in members diagnosed with eating disorders and exacerbation of symptoms in those previously diagnosed.
Eating disorders are complex, potentially life-threatening medical and psychiatric illnesses that can affect people of all ages, races, genders, body shapes and weights. They can have devastating health consequences, impacting every organ system in the body. They’re also treatable.
If you have patients experiencing an eating disorder, we have resources to help.
