Prostate and bladder biopsies at Fairbanks Urology
When Fairbanks Urology biopsies the prostate or resects a bladder tumor, the specimen requisition is faxed to the lab and the graded pathology — the Gleason score or tumor stage — is faxed back to the chart. Name the patient and the ordering urologist on the cover sheet so the report is filed against the right case. Keep the confirmation so the case shows the pathology was returned.
Faxing a referral to Fairbanks Urology
A referral to Fairbanks Urology carries what the urologist needs up front — the reason for referral, the PSA or urinalysis result, the history, and the referring office's contact details. Flag anything urgent — gross hematuria or an obstructing stone with pain — so the office prioritizes the appointment. Put the patient identifiers on every page so the referral is matched.
Sending patient records to Fairbanks Urology without cutting corners

Faxing to Fairbanks Urology — FAQ
A urology office runs on appointments and procedures, so an incoming fax is received during posted hours, while routine records paperwork moves during office hours. The posted hours cover weekdays and sometimes a Saturday morning. Send routine records and prior-authorization faxes during weekday hours so they are worked promptly. Flag anything urgent on the cover sheet so staff see it is time-sensitive.
It can be, with the right service. 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 Fairbanks Urology. The safeguard is the service you use, not the act of faxing.
Ask Fairbanks Urology's front desk for its working fax before you send. A larger practice may take some documents through a records office, so confirm Fairbanks Urology still accepts fax for your request.
