Does anyone know if there is a BMI they will hospitalise you, say if it's under a certain value or something? (This regarding an eating disorder)

Also for those who have been hospitalised for an eating disorder, what was your BMI at the time?

I know there are other factors which are taken in to consideration, I just wanted to know if there was a general BMI value..
