The care pathway
Eating disorders (EDs) can have serious health consequences and they require multidisciplinary care
Since February 2024, children, adolescents and young adults (up to the age of 23) suffering from EDs can benefit from specialised care. This care can begin as soon as the doctor diagnoses an eating disorder, activates the care pathway and creates a treatment plan with the various professionals involved. Sessions with a psychologist as well as with a dietitian are provided. (The sessions with a dietitian are fully reimbursed by the mutuelle under the "eating disorder" care pathway.) dans le cadre du trajet de soins « troubles d’alimentation ».

Similarly, if your child aged between 0 and 12 is unable to eat because of an orality disordera paediatric care pathway is available.
