CHADIS was created as a product that provided pre-visit access to forms and questionnaires for parent completion with the intent to provide the best possible care for the patient and a better paperless workflow for the practice. CHADIS was so successful in the pediatric space, the decision was made to extend the access of questionnaires to cover all ages and many practice types including behavioral health. CHADIS now has hundreds of questionnaires and the name of the company needed to reflect that CHADIS is more than a pediatric product. September 2021 The Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) has awarded CHADIS a grant for the Validation of the Online Toddler Autism and Development Adaptive Screener (TADAS) at 18 months The American Academy of Pediatrics has mandated identification of autism beginning at the routine 18-month visit, based on evidence that early intervention for children with autism improves outcomes, but there are concerns about the accuracy of currently available screening tools at that age. This project builds on data from a previous grant showing that using machine learning algorithms individualizing presentation of items to screen for autism and developmental delay (called TADAS) dramatically improved accuracy of screening with lesser parent burden and benefits to office workflow. The proposed study is required to bring this promising tool to clinical use by programming it into our online clinical process support system (CHADIS) and then completing validation in a new community sample of toddlers weighted to be representative of the U.S. population.

March 2021 Maryland Community Health Resources Commission Grant “Addressing the Health & Social Needs of Vulnerable Populations” Stone Run Family Medicine (Cecil & Surrounding Counties of Maryland). The program will support the implementation of the "Open Table" concept through two clinic practices, Stone Run and Clinica (a charitable clinic that specializes in serving Spanish-speaking residents with financial and language barriers). Open Table is a non-profit training organization that specializes in developing and directing the "social and relational assets of community-based volunteers to support vulnerable families and residents with complex needs." The program goal is to leverage community and social and relational networks to provide the support that transcends traditional safety net programs and uses a clinical process support system (CHADIS) to identify Social Determinants of Health and communicate with the Open Table group as well as other local professional and agency resources.

We are definitively showing that M-CHAT is limited at 18 months and we have two approaches that are better. One simple and somewhat better. The other is complicated for the computer to do but simple for parents and doctors and considerably better for autism and development.

Join a project addressing Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and Social Determinants of Health CHADIS is recruiting practices for an exciting project aimed at preventing adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) in children, including child maltreatment, by addressing social determinants of health and parent ACEs. The project is a multi-year NIH-funded research intervention effort that includes the use of a family stress questionnaire (Safe Environment for Every Kid), an advanced decision support tool, and new referral-facilitation software in CHADIS. You will earn 25 Part 4 MOC credits at no charge, get free tablets for your waiting room, and receive other practice level benefits (e.g. improving documentation for the medical home, Community Health Needs Assessments, your QI efforts, and negotiated billing rates) and learn a very practical and efficient way to motivate parents. Please contact gvullo@chadis.com. We will give you more information about the project and ask a few follow-up questions to determine your eligibility.
