Community Health Clinic Fax Number — Send Referrals and Consult Reports
Need to send a referral to or from Community Health Clinic? At a rural clinic the referral goes out to a specialist or hospital that may be a drive away, so getting the fax right matters. Community Health Clinic, a rural community clinic in Forest, Mississippi, sends and receives referrals, records, and results by fax every day. Because a referral carries a patient's health information, this guide covers both where to send it and how to keep the transmission compliant.

Faxing a referral packet from Community Health Clinic

Include the insurance information so the receiving office can verify benefits while it schedules. Send the whole packet at once so the referral is not held up waiting on a page.
Community Health Clinic as a telehealth originating site
As a rural clinic, Community Health Clinic often serves as the local point of contact for a patient whose specialists are scattered across a wide area. Send the current problem list, medications, and recent results so the distant provider is not starting blind. Keep the confirmation so the coordinating staff at Community Health Clinic know it went through.
Protected health information and Community Health Clinic
A rural patient's chart is protected health information, so how you fax it to Community Health Clinic matters as much as the number. HIPAA permits faxing PHI over a compliant, encrypted service — not a shared machine at the library or a free app. Send FAX Mail includes HIPAA and encryption starting at $39.99/month, so PHI headed to Community Health Clinic travels over a compliant channel instead of a shared machine.
Faxing to Community Health Clinic — FAQ
File a signed authorization with the clinic's records office. Community Health Clinic will tell you where to fax or upload the completed form. List the patient identifiers, the dates of service, and the exact records you want. Once processed, Community Health Clinic releases the records to you or the party you named.
Community Health Clinic is small enough that one or two lines cover everything. Even so, records, referrals, and refills may go to different staff on that one line. Confirm the current line and the right staff with Community Health Clinic before you send. Keep the confirmed number with the patient's file so you are not searching next time.
Include the identifiers staff use to match a chart: full name and date of birth. Add a cover sheet addressed to the nurse line or records at Community Health Clinic with your callback number. Attach the signed ROI authorization when the fax is a records request. Complete, legible identifiers are what move the request fastest.
Community Health Clinic receives faxes at any hour, but the staff who process them keep clinic hours. The office is staffed during clinic hours, not overnight like a hospital. Because the clinic is not staffed overnight, send time-sensitive documents early in the day. Flag anything time-sensitive on the cover sheet so it is not treated as routine.
