Pediatrics Leveraging Yosi Health for Mental Health and Other Screenings to Ensure Healthy Children

Healthcare IT Today Interviews

When I heard that a pediatric organization was so focused on mental health screenings in their office, my mind couldn't quite get around the need for mental health screeners for children. However, that's what made me particularly interested to sit down and talk with Shannon Fox-Levine MD, FAAP, President, Pediatrician, and Kimberly Brennan, Practice Administrator at Palm Beach Pediatrics. Their focus on keeping infants and young children safe both mentally and physically is admirable and a model for so many other pediatric organizations. Of course, here at Healthcare IT Today we were particularly interested in how they were using Yosi Health to administer these screenings along with improving the patient experience. Dr. Fox and Brennan highlight how the digital screenings through Yosi Health had a number of advantages. First, patients prefer filling out electronic forms at their convenience much more than paper forms on a clipboard in the office. Second, the digital screeners are integrated right into Palm Beach Pediatrics EHR so the data is readily available for the clinicians.
