Sending the certification of terminal illness to Faith Hospice
Faxing the hospice election paperwork to Faith Hospice means reaching the intake office that processes the CTI and the benefit election.

Faxing to Faith Hospice — FAQ
Not one central number. The line for medical records is separate from the one for admission intake. Match the office to your document, then send to that specific line. Sending to the wrong line only delays the paperwork for a patient and family who need it.
Every page should carry the patient's full name, date of birth, and record number. Note the target office — medical records, admission intake, or the hospice care team — on the cover sheet. Send it as one combined PDF so the pages stay in order. Check the details once before you send so nothing bounces back.
Incoming faxes to Faith Hospice are never turned away by the hour, but processing is not always immediate. Processing at medical records generally runs Monday through Friday during business hours. A records request sent overnight is worked the next business day, while urgent orders go to the on-call team. A brief follow-up call confirms an urgent fax to Faith Hospice was seen.
Faxing records to Faith Hospice 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.
