Customization: Pediatric EHRs need to be customized to include pediatric-specific data, such as growth charts and immunization schedules. Privacy Concerns: Protecting the sensitive health information of minors is crucial. Interoperability: Ensuring that EHR systems can communicate with each other is essential for coordinated care. Cost: Implementing and maintaining EHR systems can be expensive for pediatric practices.
