No. Baylor University Medical Center routes faxes to separate department lines, so Health Information Management and the physician referral office do not share a number. As a academic medical center, it splits incoming faxes across Health Information Management and the individual clinics. Match the office to your document, then send to that specific line. Sending to the wrong line only delays the paperwork.
