Eating disorder treatment in Indiana

Residential eating disorder care in Indiana is limited. Selah House in Anderson, northeast of Indianapolis, serves women and adolescent girls across inpatient, residential, and partial hospitalization care. There is no general adult residential program in the state, so men and others needing residential care typically travel out of state. For hospital-level medical stabilization, Indiana University Health and Riley Hospital for Children in Indianapolis provide inpatient care before someone steps down to day treatment or intensive outpatient.

Yes. Which levels of care are covered, and which in-state residential or day-treatment programs your plan works with, can vary from plan to plan. Coverage and the in-state programs a plan contracts with vary by plan, so the treatment program will confirm whether it works with your specific plan when you call.

Indiana's in-person specialty programs are located in Indianapolis, Anderson, Fort Wayne, Carmel, and Jeffersonville. The northwest region near Gary and Hammond, the southwest around Evansville, and the southeast between Bloomington and the Ohio River have no in-person specialty program and rely on virtual care and travel. For residential care, families in those regions travel to Anderson (women and girls) or out of state.
