The Telluride Daily News shared our recent Medicaid announcement in both their print and online editions of the paper.

Eating Recovery Center and Pathlight Mood & Anxiety Center (ERC Pathlight) is expanding to accept Medicaid coverage for adults, adolescents and children in Denver, removing a barrier to mental health care for the 18% of Americans with Medicaid. Only 36% of people in the United States with mental health diagnoses receive treatment, and for those with eating disorders that number drops to 10%. This expansion provides patients in Colorado with additional options as ERC Pathlight will now accept two state Medicaid plans.
