The traditional group format of day hospital treatment for eating disorders restricts individual tailoring of treatment, which is challenging when complex cases are referred. In 2007 we introduced a new program that included individual sessions. Patients referred to this program were older, had longer illness duration, and more pre-treatment symptoms than the original group program. These clients also had more psychopathology, and were more likely to have a diagnosis of anorexia nervosa binge/purge subtype. Weight gain and abstinence from symptoms were less likely for patients in this new program. However, premature discharge, rapid response, symptom frequencies, and relapse rates did not differ.
