When Higher Levels of Care May Be Needed

For some individuals, outpatient therapy alone may not provide enough support. Residential treatment offers a structured environment where clients receive consistent care throughout the day.

Insurance reviewers typically consider several factors when evaluating residential treatment requests, including:

  • Persistent restriction, binge eating, or purging behaviors

  • Nutritional instability or medical concerns

  • Severe anxiety, depression, or obsessive thoughts about food

  • Difficulty managing daily responsibilities due to symptoms

  • Previous attempts at recovery that were not successful

A thorough clinical assessment helps determine the safest and most effective treatment approach.

Structured Outpatient Programs Covered by Insurance

Not everyone requires 24-hour residential care. Many Baylor Scott & White plans may authorize structured outpatient treatment programs that provide strong clinical support while allowing clients to live at home.

Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)

PHP is a full-day treatment program that includes therapy sessions, supervised meals, and clinical monitoring.

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

IOP offers a more flexible schedule with several therapy sessions each week while individuals continue their daily routines outside of treatment.

These programs can be used as primary treatment or as a step-down option after residential care.
