Faxing to Central Iowa Compounding — FAQ
At a minimum, the patient's name and date of birth belong on each page, with the prescription number when relevant. Direct the cover sheet to the correct Central Iowa Compounding team and include a number staff can call. That routing detail is what lets Central Iowa Compounding reconnect the order if the pages separate. A missing date of birth is the usual reason a fax sits in a queue at Central Iowa Compounding.
You can send to Central Iowa Compounding any time, though routine orders are worked during business hours. The teams that process referrals and authorizations keep standard weekday hours. Send time-sensitive orders early in the day so they are worked in time. Flag anything time-sensitive on the cover sheet so it is not treated as routine.
Yes, when the channel is secure. A patient's name, date of birth, and medications are protected health information, so a free app or a public machine is the wrong channel. Send FAX Mail's flat plans start at $12.99/month with a 7-day free trial, and every page to Central Iowa Compounding travels encrypted. The safeguard is the service you use, not the act of faxing.
A number copied from a directory may be stale; Central Iowa Compounding has the current one. Read the fax off the specific form or packet you are responding to, where it is usually printed.

A prescriber order for a compound goes to the intake team that builds it. Send the prescription and any prior authorization together.
