Eating Disorder Clinics in the US industry analysis

The increase in the number of eating disorder cases has stimulated industry growth and supported the emergence of substitute services. However, many individuals still don't receive treatment because of high costs, lack of awareness and the stigma around seeking help. Public and private health insurers often provide limited coverage or exclude eating disorder treatments, creating financial barriers and hindering industry growth. Although social media and online platforms have increased public awareness and provided services, social media is criticized for diminishing the positive impact of these efforts. Legislative efforts are underway to hold platforms accountable for any mental harm or the promotion of eating disorders. Despite these challenges, positive economic factors such as increased government funding and higher per capita income have contributed to industry revenue growing at a CAGR of 1.9%, reaching a total of $4.5 billion in 2024 and an estimated revenue gain of 0.9%.

Trends and Insights

  • Societal awareness boosts demand for eating disorder clinics. Public health campaigns and social media advocacy have de-stigmatized eating disorders, encouraging more individuals to seek help.
  • Mental health parity laws are critical to future revenues. Despite their passage, a lack of enforcement and the absence of such laws in some states mean many individuals face higher costs, and clinics encounter challenges.
  • Clinics are located near urban, dense population centers. The most populated states, with densely populated cities, have the highest number of eating disorder clinics.
  • Nothing helps a clinic succeed more than success rates. Clinics with higher rates of successful outcomes and sustained recovery are likely to have a better reputation and be more able to compete and control prices and revenue volatility.
