Identification of the key differences between managing inpatients with ARFID and anorexia nervosa (AN) led to modification of an existing AN protocol with the goals of better meeting patient needs, enhancing alignment with outpatient care, and improving outcomes. A case report of an adolescent with ARFID who had three hospital admissions is presented to highlight these changes.
