Question 1

What insurance documents do South Carolina agencies usually fax?

Accepted Answer

First notice of loss forms, signed applications, ACORD certificates, claims correspondence, and producer licensing paperwork headed to the South Carolina Department of Insurance. Adjusters and carriers keep using fax because each page generates a confirmation that claims departments and the Department treat as proof the document arrived.

Question 2

Is Send FAX Mail secure enough for SC claims files with health data?

Accepted Answer

Transmissions run over TLS and stored faxes are encrypted with AES-256. For agencies and carriers handling protected health information on health, supplemental, or workers compensation claims, the $54.99 per month Business plan supports HIPAA requirements, and every send is logged with a timestamp for your records.

Question 3

How much does Send FAX Mail cost for a South Carolina insurance office?

Accepted Answer

Paid plans start at $12.99 per month. There are no per-page charges; when a heavy claims month pushes you past your page allowance you move up to a higher plan rather than accruing per-page fees, so a solo producer and a multi-location agency both pick the tier that fits their volume instead of a flat per-line charge.

Question 4

Can a South Carolina agent keep their current fax number?

Accepted Answer

You can choose a new fax number at no extra cost when you sign up, including a South Carolina area code if you want a local presence. Established agencies that have printed an existing number on policies and carrier directories can port it in so nothing changes for clients or appointing carriers.

Question 5

Does Send FAX Mail work for coastal carriers and wind pool filings?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Carriers and agencies that file with the South Carolina Wind and Hail Underwriting Association can fax binders, applications, and supporting documents the same way they would any other transmission, with a confirmation on each page. Higher-volume plans add multiple numbers and users for agencies running offices along the coast and inland.
