Eating disorders, particularly anorexia and bulimia, are usually covered by health insurance, partly as a result of the "parity law" now in effect in California, but figuring out exactly what the coverage is can be confusing.

This short guide will give you some basic information to help you get the benefits to which you are entitled and also to make decisions about maintaining insurance coverage for the future.
