Checklist

International Pediatric Medical Records Checklist

The documents most U.S. pediatric reviews ask for. Exact requirements vary by hospital — your coordinator confirms the specific list for your case.

Core documents

  • Recent medical summary from the treating physician
  • Diagnosis and how it was established
  • Current condition description and urgency assessment
  • Complete list of current medications and doses
  • Known allergies

Test results and reports

  • Laboratory results relevant to the condition
  • Pathology reports, if any biopsies were performed
  • Imaging reports (X-ray, ultrasound, CT, MRI)
  • The imaging files themselves — see the imaging checklist
  • Specialist consultation reports

History

  • Past surgeries and procedures with dates
  • Past hospital stays and discharge summaries
  • Treatments tried and the responses to them
  • Vaccination record
  • Growth and development notes for younger children

Practical points

  • Key documents translated into English (confirm which before paying for translation)
  • Every document labeled with the document date
  • Copies kept — originals stay with the family
  • Everything shared only through the secure channel, never public forms or email

This checklist is general information, not medical, legal, or immigration advice. Requirements vary by hospital and country — your coordinator confirms the specifics for your case.
