Faxing to Akron Radiology — FAQ
No. Documents go to different fax lines at Akron Radiology depending on the office. Scheduling, records, and results each keep their own line. Ask for the office you actually need to get the right number. Sending to the wrong line only delays the patient's imaging.
Label each page with the patient's name, date of birth, and record number. On the cover sheet, name medical records or the receiving office so it lands with the right team. That routing detail is what lets Akron Radiology reconnect the documents if they separate. Check the details once before you send so nothing bounces back.
The machines accept faxes around the clock; staff processing depends on the office. Records and scheduling offices work weekday business hours. Time-critical orders are picked up by the imaging team during operating hours. A brief follow-up call confirms an urgent fax to Akron Radiology was seen.
It can be, with the right service. Faxing itself is accepted for PHI; the transport is what has to be secure. Send FAX Mail covers HIPAA on the Professional ($39.99/month) and Business ($79.99/month) plans for documents going to Akron Radiology. Handled that way, the records stay within the rules end to end.
Read requests and report-copy requests route to different offices at a radiology practice. Ask Akron Radiology which line reaches the radiologists directly.
