Baby Catcher Birth Center Fax Number

Check with Baby Catcher Birth Center's front desk, which can route you to records or the clinical staff

Hours: A birth center runs prenatal clinics on weekdays and keeps a midwife on call for labor, so the machine receives faxes across business hours; the records and billing staff who answer authorizations still keep standard weekday hours.
