On the Vital Signs layout and on the Constitutional Exam layout the height is now recorded in inches. This was done so that the BMI can be automatically calculated by the program when both the height and weight of the patient are recorded.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_mass_index is a good reference if you are interested in how this parameter is calculated and how to interpret it.
