Faxing to Cape ENT — FAQ
Faxes reach Cape ENT whenever you send them, though prior-authorization and records work follows a business-day schedule.

The right number depends on which staff should receive the document. The patient's physician or the referring office often already has the correct Cape ENT fax on file.
