Pediatric EMR (Pediatric Therapy EMR/EHR)

PBS EMR is a pediatric therapy EMR for PT, OT, and SLP that mirrors real sessions—play‑based, caregiver‑centered, and outcomes‑driven. A chart‑native AI co‑pilot helps you tie targets to function, surface risks and precautions, and produce clear, defensible notes—always optional and clinician‑led.

How pediatric sessions flow in PBS EMR

  • Prep: surface red flags, precautions (feeding/aspiration, seizure, elopement risk), allergy alerts, equipment needs, and prior outcomes. View caregiver goals and school accommodations in one glance.
  • Session: play‑based blocks across domains—gross motor (PT), fine motor & sensory (OT), language/speech/AAC & feeding (SLP)—with inclusion cues, progression criteria, and stop criteria.
  • Note: AI drafts SOAP with citations and prompts for carryover/HEP. Plans update for school/home with plain‑language caregiver summaries.

Pediatric outcomes that map to what you did

Track development and function with measures like PDMS‑2, BOT‑2, GMFM, GMFCS level, PEDI‑CAT, and SFA, plus therapy‑specific metrics (ROM/MMT, balance, intelligibility, WPM, texture tolerance). Interventions are tied to outcomes so progress and plateaus are obvious and defensible.

IEP/IFSP & school‑based workflows

Align goals, services, minutes, and accommodations to district templates. Generate progress summaries for teams and caregivers. Keep HIPAA/FERPA boundaries in mind based on your setting and district policy.

Guardianship, consent & communication

Capture multi‑guardian/caregiver relationships, custody and consent status, interpreter needs, preferred language, and communication preferences. Consent artifacts are linked in chart and audit‑ready.

AAC & pediatric feeding

Document device trials, vocabulary sets, access methods (direct select, scanning, eye gaze), and partner training. For feeding: risks, textures, positioning, pacing, and carryover plans with clear stop criteria.

Practice management built for pediatrics

  • Scheduling: after‑school blocks, caregiver availability, transportation windows, therapy minute tracking, and make‑up sessions.
  • Eligibility & authorizations: verify benefits, track visit limits/minutes, and surface expirations before they disrupt care.
  • Billing: claim scrubber and direct‑to‑payer routing where supported, with ERA auto‑posting for faster reconciliation.
  • Payments: accurate patient responsibility, statements, and links for caregiver‑friendly pay options.

Connectivity and policies vary by payer and plan. Timelines are not guaranteed; use current rules and your clinic policies.
