About ACUTE Center for Eating Disorders

This 30-bed center specializes in treating both male and female patients ages 15+, regardless of how low their BMI is. They provide inpatient medical treatment for life-threatening eating disorders, as well as the necessary clinical support to help foster long-term healing. ACUTE differs from a traditional center that treats eating disorders in that they provide medical stabilization for the most severe and extreme cases of eating disorders or malnutrition. The goal of treatment is for patients to seamlessly transition into a residential facility to further address the eating disorder and work towards ongoing recovery. If patients have a co-occurring substance use disorder, ACUTE can provide safe detox for their immediate substance concerns. This center believes that true recovery begins with healthy weight restoration. In order to restore healthy weight gain, the providers manage blood chemistry abnormalities, conduct proper monitoring to avoid Refeeding Syndrome, and introduce feeding tubes on an as-needed basis. ACUTE is in-network with most privately held insurance companies.

How do I start treatment at ACUTE Center for Eating Disorders?
Call the facility directly at (866) 790-9366 for an intake assessment. Our free 24/7 helpline (+1 (205) 973-2878) can also help you compare programs, verify insurance, and navigate options. No physician referral is required.
Is treatment confidential?
Yes. Federal law (42 CFR Part 2) provides strict confidentiality protections for substance use treatment records — stricter than HIPAA. Records cannot be disclosed without written consent, even to family, employers, or law enforcement.
What happens when you call? (general intake process)

Most treatment centers follow a 4-step intake: (1) confidential assessment — substance history, mental health, insurance, preferences (protected by 42 CFR Part 2); (2) insurance verification — facility contacts your plan to confirm coverage and out-of-pocket costs; (3) level-of-care recommendation — clinical staff match you to detox, residential, PHP, IOP, or outpatient based on severity; (4) admission typically within 24–48 hours. Timing varies by facility and bed availability.
