Because these documents hold PHI, the channel you send them over matters as much as the number. Encryption in transit is what keeps a patient's records and identifiers out of the wrong hands. For PHI, Send FAX Mail's HIPAA-eligible Professional plan ($39.99/month) supports a signed BAA and encrypts every page to CHAS Health in transit; a 7-day free trial lets you start.
Cover-sheet basics for faxing CHAS Health

Faxing to CHAS Health — FAQ
CHAS Health receives faxes at any hour, but the offices that process them keep set schedules. The offices that handle referrals and records keep standard weekday hours. A request sent overnight is picked up the next business day. Expect same-day handling only for the items the site watches for.
Yes — the concern is the tool you use, not the act of faxing. A patient's name, date of birth, and history are protected health information, so a free app or a shared office machine is the wrong channel. Send FAX Mail encrypts documents in transit and gives you a delivery confirmation for pages bound for CHAS Health, from $12.99/month. A secure send protects both you and the patient the record belongs to.
The current line comes from CHAS Health directly, since site and department numbers change. Call the specific CHAS Health clinic location and ask for the medical records office or the team you are reaching. Confirming the line first is a two-minute step that prevents a misrouted record. That confirmation is the difference between a delivered record and a lost one.
The answer varies by document and site at CHAS Health. A records request, an ROI authorization, or an enrollment form is still commonly faxed even where referrals are online. So confirm the site still accepts fax before you send, and use the portal when that is what it asks for. Guessing the channel is the usual reason a document has to be resent.
An enrollment or sliding-fee form at CHAS Health routes to the benefits team. Put the patient identifiers and the supporting documents on the pages. Address the cover sheet to the enrollment team so it is not misrouted to a clinic. Keep the transmission confirmation in case you need to show it went through. That keeps the request moving without a second round trip.
