At HIMSS 2017 in Orlando, Amy Perry, Senior Product Manager, discusses how customers utilize fax solutions to enhance efficiency and reduce costs in healthcare. With over 90% of patient information being exchanged through traditional paper-based faxing, the initial step is to minimize security and compliance risks by transitioning to a centralized digital fax solution. The next step involves optimizing fax processes by integrating them with EMR systems, back-end applications, and multi-function printer devices. This integration fosters efficient workflows, facilitating quicker access to patient information and improving care coordination across healthcare teams, ultimately enhancing care quality.

Got questions?

Below are some common questions from our customers that may provide you with the answer you're looking for. If you can't find an answer to your question, please don't hesitate to reach out to us.

Can you send patient information via fax?

Patient information should only be faxed to fulfill a treatment, payment or healthcare operations obligation or a specifically authorized request (see COMP. 103 Use and Disclosure of Protected Health Information).

How do I fax patient information?

When sending a fax, include a cover sheet indicating the date and time sent; the recipients name and fax number; and the senders name, organization and phone number. The fax cover sheet should NEVER include a patients name or any other PHI. 2. Include a privacy statement in the fax cover sheet.

What is required for a fax HIPAA?

Every time you fax a document containing PHI, you are required by HIPAA to use a fax disclaimer with the approved statement warning against unauthorized access. This document informs the receiver that incoming faxes contain personal information that is not to be distributed or disclosed without permission.

Can you fax HIPAA information?

In general, using a regular paper-to-paper fax to send or receive reimbursement information will not, by itself, make a dental practice a HIPAA covered entity. However, a dental practice can become a HIPAA covered entity if it conducts a HIPAA standard transaction using a computerized or digital fax.

What does HIPAA say about faxing resident information?

Always use cover pages that will obscure the PHI underneath. This is actually a HIPAA requirement and includes a mandate to use an approved confidentiality statement. It should also include the date and time, name of the recipient, destination fax number, and the senders name, organization, and phone number.

Is faxing patient information a HIPAA violation?

Not only is faxing a familiar technology, but it is also a HIPAA-approved method of document transmission.

How do I fax confidential information?

Online fax services offer a safe and convenient way to send personal information and sensitive documents. When you send a fax through an online platform like eFax, your document is encrypted in transit to protect any sensitive information that it might contain.

How do you send information through a fax?

Follow these steps to send a fax from your computer: Create a new fax. Compose an email with a message and a cover letter and attach the files to it. Address it to the desired recipient fax number along with the required code. Send the fax and have your documents delivered to the targeted fax machine.
