Faxing to AltaMed Health Services — FAQ
A number copied from a search result may be the wrong site; AltaMed Health Services has the current one. The referring provider's office often already has the correct AltaMed Health Services fax on file. Keep the working number with the patient's file for next time. That confirmation is the difference between a delivered record and a lost one.
Some AltaMed Health Services sites take fax; many referrals now move through a referral portal or secure upload. Where the document carries PHI, a secure channel matters whichever route you use. Match the document to the channel AltaMed Health Services wants, and it lands with the right desk the first time. Guessing the channel is the usual reason a document has to be resent.
Not one central number. What you send to the medical records office will not reach the referral coordination team. Match the document to the department, then send to that specific line. When in doubt, ask AltaMed Health Services for the site or department by name.
Include the three identifiers staff use to match a chart: full name, date of birth, and medical record number. Note the target office — the medical records office, a clinic site, or the enrollment and eligibility team — on the cover sheet. Send it as one combined PDF so the pages stay in order. Clear labeling is what keeps a multi-page record together at AltaMed Health Services.
