Obstetricians, gynecologists and other women’s health professionals have unique EMR software requirements, which is why they should take a hard look at EMRs designed specifically for their specialty or those well-established systems that have OB/GYN-specific templates. Examples of OB/GYN-specific requirements include:

• ante partum and post partum modules for pregnancies;
• flow sheets and graphing to track the progress of mother and baby over time;
• reporting that will support standard ACOG forms and reports;
• HL7 integration to ultrasound systems and other testing devices;
• RhoGAM alerts for Rh negative patients; and,
• well-developed patient education content to support newly expecting mothers.

We recommend the following systems that serve OB/GYN physicians and have good references in the specialty.

• hospital integration to share patient data with the health system;
• primary care workflows, since gynecologists sometimes act as a GP for women; and,
