Ease of Use

Saves Time

• No need to hand-score, dictate reports, rummage for billing information and ICD-10 codes. These are automatically generated by PEDS Online^®.
• No need to elicit milestones informally (which are known to miss most children with problems). Parents can self- administer PEDS^®:Developmental Milestones to ensure accurate early detection.
• No need to fumble for questions to elicit parents’ concerns. PEDS^® provides validated questions and accurate decision support.
• Shortens visits and eliminates “oh by the way concerns” when using PEDS^® before or at the beginning of the encounter.

Ensures Audit Documentation

• Ensures compliance with Medicaid mandates
• Provides proof that validated, standardized screens were used

Increases Clinic Revenues

• Provides needed codes for optimal reimbursement
• Helps ensure that clinics receive ~ $10.00 – $13.00 per screen, even while PEDS Online^® costs less than $2.76 for all 3 screens we offer.

Improves Quality of Care

• Increases parent and provider satisfaction
• Ensures accurate decision-making about children and families’ needs
• Ensures that screens are correctly administered (e.g., if answers are circled on PEDS^® but no words are written on the forms).
• Provides support for Quality Improvement and Maintenance of Certification efforts, via a searchable database, and abundant content on www.pedstest.com offering background information, current research updates, etc.

Provides Training Support

• slide shows, videos, case examples, Frequently Asked Questions, and other guidance helpful for training staff and providers
