Alamo Maxillofacial Surgical Associates Fax Number — Fax Dental Records the HIPAA Way

The X-rays and charting Alamo Maxillofacial Surgical Associates keeps are PHI, not ordinary paperwork. Releasing them to another party runs on a signed HIPAA authorization from the patient. Even though it is your own record, a secure channel keeps it out of the wrong hands.

Fax still works for many documents at Alamo Maxillofacial Surgical Associates, but not for every one. A referral may go through an e-referral portal even when a records release is still faxed. If the office asks for a portal, use it; if it accepts fax, confirm the current line. Either way, do not assume — the group's own instructions are the authority.

Get it from Alamo Maxillofacial Surgical Associates directly rather than an old online listing, since office numbers change. Ask the Alamo Maxillofacial Surgical Associates staff helping you whether the group takes fax and its number. Verifying the group and the line up front is the honest shortcut. Skip the stale listing and confirm the line at the source.

A records release, a set of X-rays, and a pre-authorization request are the documents sent most. When a patient moves, the complete chart is sent to the new dentist. Whatever the document, put the patient's name and date of birth on every page. The front office can tell you which documents it still needs by fax versus a portal.
