Barc Housing Fax Number — Request and Send Resident Records
Getting a copy of a resident's record from Barc Housing starts with a completed release-of-information form; this page shows where it goes. Barc Housing, a community ICF/IID in Davie, Florida, sends and receives orders, records, and consent documents by fax every day. Because a resident's chart and program plan are protected health information, this guide covers both where to send them and how to keep the transmission compliant.

Hours: An ICF/IID is a residential facility, so nursing staff are on-site around the clock — but the records, program, and administrative offices that handle paperwork keep weekday business hours.

Requesting records from Barc Housing
To request or send records at Barc Housing, the request goes to the records office on a signed release, and a resident's record includes the medical chart and the Individual Program or Support Plan. Because a resident may have a legal guardian, the release often carries the guardian's signature rather than the resident's. Put the resident's identifiers on every page so the request is matched cleanly.
Identifiers your fax to Barc Housing needs
The cover sheet does the routing work once a fax reaches Barc Housing. Note the date and the page count so the receiving office knows the fax is complete. Keeping the pages in one job avoids a half-received document at Barc Housing.
Protected health information and Barc Housing
Anything with a resident's history, orders, or plan headed to Barc Housing is protected data under HIPAA. A consumer fax app is not enough; the channel needs to be encrypted and HIPAA-compliant. Send FAX Mail's Professional plan ($39.99/month) and Business plan ($79.99/month) both include HIPAA coverage and encryption for documents bound for Barc Housing.
Faxing to Barc Housing — FAQ
Often just one facility line, though a larger center may split records and nursing onto separate lines. The line is shared, but the person who works it varies by request. Verify the working fax with Barc Housing first, since a facility's numbers change. Which line is right depends on the request, not the facility as a whole.
Put the resident's full name and date of birth on every page. Direct the cover sheet to the correct Barc Housing desk and include a number staff can call. A delivery confirmation then tells you the fax reached Barc Housing. The identifiers matter as much as the records themselves.
Faxes reach Barc Housing whenever you send; nursing sees an order promptly, but paperwork follows the office's weekday schedule. The floor is covered around the clock even when the offices are closed. Time-sensitive medical orders reach nursing any time; routine paperwork waits for office hours. Expect same-day handling for an order sent to nursing.
It is, provided your fax service is HIPAA-compliant. A consumer app is not enough; the channel has to be encrypted and compliant, which rules out a shared machine. Send FAX Mail encrypts pages in transit and includes HIPAA starting at $39.99/month — safer for PHI headed to Barc Housing than a public machine. Compliance is about how the pages travel, not only where they land at Barc Housing.
