Pediatricians have unique medical software requirements and need a system that will handle the specific demands of their practice. Examples of pediatric-specific EMR requirements include:

• growth charts to track patient BMI, height, weight and head circumference;
• customizeable school and camp forms;
• immunization tracking and integration to immunization registries;
• exam templates designed for different ages (e.g. Well 3-month, etc.); and,
• well-developed patient education content for parents.

We recommend the following systems that serve pediatricians and have good references in the specialty.
