HIPAA-Compliant Fax for Pennsylvania Healthcare Providers
Pennsylvania health systems such as UPMC in Pittsburgh and Penn Medicine in Philadelphia move enormous volumes of clinical paper between hospitals, specialists, and payers every day, and most of that exchange still travels by fax. Referrals, lab orders, and prior authorization requests need to land with a record that they arrived, which is why fax remains the default for protected health information across the Commonwealth.
Regulations & Compliance
Pennsylvania providers answer to federal HIPAA and to the Pennsylvania Health Care Facilities Act, which sets recordkeeping rules for licensed facilities under the Pennsylvania Department of Health. The State Medical Board governs physician conduct, and the Mental Health Procedures Act adds tighter confidentiality requirements for behavioral health records. Send FAX Mail encrypts faxes in transit with TLS and at rest with AES-256, and signs a Business Associate Agreement with covered entities, which supports compliance on the Business plan at $54.99/mo with HIPAA coverage.
