Dealing with Eating Disorders
According to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA) often times when someone is struggling with an eating disorder, they have other disorders that have yet to be diagnosed. As a result, it is best that someone with an eating disorder seek treatment to identify dual diagnoses. Otherwise, and underlying condition can lead to relapse for eating disorder patients. The best route for treatment involves a holistic approach that allows medical professionals to address a variety of areas that could be effected, such as mental, physical and emotional health. HMO Eating Disorder Coverage aids in this process by providing financial security for individuals seeking treatment for eating disorders and co-existing disorders or issues.
Getting Treatment for Eating Disorders
Finding a way to treat your eating disorder is the priority of your medical doctor. Once you have been diagnosed with having an eating disorder, your doctor will prescribe you with a specific level of care that determines what type of treatment you need to seek. Additionally, you will be provided with a treatment plan that is geared at your level of care. You should be included in the decision regarding the treatment plan, as your personal and professional needs must be inclusive in the decision toward what treatment you will receive. Some of the types of treatment that may be included with HMO Eating Disorder Coverage include:
- Inpatient services including hospitalization, intravenous supplementation, and medical care
- Outpatient programs, such as eating disorder group therapy sessions
- Psychotherapy or psychiatry
- Diagnosis and treatment of dual disorders, such as OCD or ADD
- Addiction treatment for substance use, i.e. stimulants or diuretics used for the eating disorder
As you look into your treatment options for your eating disorder, consider that this form of treatment may involve other aspects of your health and wellbeing. For example, you may discover that you have long term physical distress that needs to be treated with medication or surgery. Additionally, your treatment could involve long term psychotherapy covered by HMO Eating Disorder Coverage to resolve any mental health issues you have triggering your eating disorder.
