Faxing to Advance Clinical Lab — FAQ
Faxing records to Advance Clinical Lab is fine under HIPAA as long as the service is compliant. The risk is not the fax itself but an unsecured tool, so a free app or a public machine will not do. Send FAX Mail includes HIPAA from the Professional plan at $39.99/month and encrypts documents in transit for records bound for Advance Clinical Lab. A secure send protects both you and the patient whose results these are.
Get it from the office that will receive the document rather than an old listing. The referring provider's office often already has the correct Advance Clinical Lab fax on file. Confirming the line first is a two-minute step that prevents a misrouted record. That confirmation is the difference between a delivered order and a lost one.
Release of information begins with a signed ROI request to the records office. The office names the current fax once your request is on file. List the patient identifiers, the collection dates, and the exact results you want so nothing is missed. Turnaround depends on the request; routine copies are handled in the order received.
No. Advance Clinical Lab routes faxes to separate office lines, so the medical records office and the client services office do not share a number. What you send to the medical records office will not reach the client services office. Confirm the correct line for the office you are reaching before you send. When in doubt, ask Advance Clinical Lab for the office by name.
