The referral packet Edina Urgent Care sends

A specialist taking a referral from Edina Urgent Care needs the visit note, the results, and the reason for referral up front, and those travel by fax. Name the patient and the referring provider on the cover sheet so the specialist ties the referral to the record. Send the referral and its attachments as one PDF so nothing arrives split.

How Edina Urgent Care faxes a visit note to your primary care office

Continuity of care is why Edina Urgent Care faxes a visit summary to the patient's primary care physician: the primary office needs to know what was diagnosed and treated. The summary carries the diagnosis, what was done, and any medication started, so the primary office can follow up. Keep the transmission confirmation until the summary is acknowledged.

The secure way to fax Edina Urgent Care

A visit summary and its results are protected health information, so how you fax them to Edina Urgent Care matters as much as the number. Encryption in transit and a compliant provider are what keep the transmission within the rules. Send FAX Mail's Professional plan ($39.99/month) and Business plan ($79.99/month) both include HIPAA coverage and encryption for documents bound for Edina Urgent Care.

Faxing to Edina Urgent Care — FAQ

Continuity of care is the norm, so Edina Urgent Care sends the visit note to the physician you name. Providing your doctor's office fax speeds the summary to the right chart. Your regular office needs the visit details, and the faxed summary provides them. Put your name and date of birth on the request so it is matched.

Include the identifiers staff use to match a chart: full name and date of birth. Add a cover sheet addressed to records or the front desk at Edina Urgent Care with your callback number. That routing detail is what lets Edina Urgent Care reconnect the documents if they separate. Check the details once before you send so nothing bounces back.

Incoming faxes to Edina Urgent Care are received across the clinic's long daily hours, but processing of routine documents keeps to office hours. The long daily hours are wider than a normal office day. Send anything routine early in the day so it does not wait over a closed office. Routine copies follow the office's normal queue.

It is, provided your fax service is HIPAA-compliant. HIPAA turns on using a compliant, encrypted service rather than a public one. Send FAX Mail includes HIPAA from the Professional plan at $39.99/month and encrypts documents in transit for records bound for Edina Urgent Care. Handled that way, the records stay within the rules end to end.

Edina Urgent Care handles the same-day need and sends the visit note on for continuity, since it does not replace your ongoing doctor. Ask Edina Urgent Care to note your physician's office on the cover sheet. Keep the confirmation until the summary is acknowledged. Confirm the current fax with Edina Urgent Care before you send. Doing it that way avoids the most common cause of a delay.
