BALTIMORE, Dec. 31, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- CHADIS (Child Health and Interactive System) has been chosen as "Best Tech for Pediatrics: 2014" by Contemporary Pediatrics.

"I've long been a fan of the Child Health and Development Interactive System (CHADIS) online service that enables parents to complete age-appropriate questionnaire and screening tools in advance of an office visit," Dr. Shuman wrote in the most recent version of Contemporary Pediatrics.
