Confirm that the recipient accepts fax for your documents. FaxASAP is an independent delivery service and is not affiliated with the recipient.
Ask the receiving provider whether it accepts the records by fax, which number to use, and whether it requires a signed release. Verify the destination directly with the provider before uploading personal health information.
HIPAA compliance depends on the parties, agreements and safeguards involved. This guide does not establish that FaxASAP is suitable for a covered entity's workflow. Confirm applicable privacy requirements and any business associate agreement with your organization before using an online service.
For an approved workflow, prepare the authorized documents as a PDF, JPG or PNG up to 8MB. Purchase a fax credit or use your existing balance. Track the transmission using the private link; a failed transmission returns the credit. Check with the provider that the records were received and matched to the correct patient.
Enter the fax number provided by your recipient. We do not supply a general-purpose destination number.
