Faxing to Eye Center of Texas — FAQ

Incoming faxes to Eye Center of Texas are never turned away by the hour, but processing is not always immediate. Processing at health information generally runs Monday through Friday during business hours. Because an ASC runs pre-booked procedure days, send pre-op paperwork well before the case. Routine copies follow the office's normal queue rather than jumping ahead.

Faxing records to Eye Center of Texas is fine under HIPAA as long as the service is compliant. The risk is not the fax itself but an unsecured tool, so a free app or a public machine will not do. Send FAX Mail includes HIPAA from the Professional plan at $39.99/month and encrypts documents in transit for records bound for Eye Center of Texas. Compliance is about how the pages travel, not only where they land at Eye Center of Texas.

Get it from the office that will receive the document rather than an old listing. The referring physician's office often already has the correct Eye Center of Texas fax on file.

Release of information begins with a signed ROI request to the records office. The office names the current fax once your request is on file. List the patient identifiers, the date of service, and the exact records you want so nothing is missed. The records move once the office verifies the authorization.
