The secure way to fax Family Fare
Anything with a patient's identifiers and drug list headed to Family Fare is sensitive health data. HIPAA's Security Rule expects protected health information to be safeguarded in transit, and the same care applies to how you send it in. For PHI, Send FAX Mail's HIPAA-eligible Professional plan ($39.99/month) supports a signed BAA and encrypts every page to Family Fare in transit; a 7-day free trial lets you start.
The cover sheet that gets your fax routed at Family Fare
How you label the pages decides whether Family Fare can reconnect them if they get separated. Add a callback number so the pharmacist can reach you with a question instead of holding the order. With the identifiers and destination clear, the fax lands where it should on the first try.
Tracking down the correct Family Fare fax
The right number for Family Fare depends entirely on which store should dispense the prescription. Use the Family Fare store locator to find the location, then call its pharmacy for the fax. That one confirmation call is what keeps a patient's medications out of the wrong queue.
Faxing to Family Fare — FAQ
No. Each Family Fare location answers its own local pharmacy fax. What you send to one pharmacy stays at that pharmacy unless the number matches. Ask the specific location for its counter's number to get the right one. Sending to the wrong pharmacy only delays the order.
Label each page with the patient's name and date of birth and the prescriber's DEA or NPI. On the cover sheet, name the exact store's pharmacy so it lands at the right counter. That routing detail is what lets Family Fare reconnect the order if the pages separate. Check the details once before you send so nothing bounces back.
The store line accepts faxes around the clock; when the counter works them depends on its hours. A store pharmacy team works the queue while the counter is open. Send time-sensitive orders early in the day so they are worked in time. A brief follow-up call confirms a time-sensitive fax to Family Fare was seen.
It can be, with an encrypted service. HIPAA frames how PHI should be protected in transit, and a secure, encrypted service is what meets that expectation. Send FAX Mail's flat plans start at $12.99/month with a 7-day free trial, and every page to Family Fare travels encrypted. Choose the secure channel first, then confirm the number for Family Fare.
A prescription to Family Fare goes by fax to the pharmacy filling it, not a corporate line. Include the prescription number and the originating pharmacy for a transfer. Address the cover sheet to the exact store so it is not misrouted. Put the patient's identifiers on every page so it is matched cleanly. It is a small step that saves a follow-up call later.
