Faxing to Greenwood Genetics Center — FAQ
Faxing records to Greenwood Genetics Center is fine under HIPAA as long as the service is compliant. An unsecured machine in a shared space cannot promise the confidentiality genetic records expect. Send FAX Mail includes HIPAA and encryption from $39.99/month for faxes to Greenwood Genetics Center. A secure send protects both you and the patient whose genetic record it is.
Get it from the office itself rather than an old listing, since a practice's numbers change. Call Greenwood Genetics Center and ask for records, a referral, or the prior-authorization desk. Verifying the office and the line up front is the honest shortcut. That confirmation is the difference between a delivered record and a lost one.
Release of information begins with a signed release request to the records staff. The records staff confirm the fax destination for the authorization. Put the patient identifiers and the requested dates on the authorization. Turnaround depends on the request; routine copies are handled in the order received.
Many genetic tests need prior authorization, so Greenwood Genetics Center faxes the request, the medical-necessity letter, and the supporting history to the payer. A prior-authorization request states the test, the clinical indication, and the supporting family history. Send the authorization packet as one PDF so the documents stay together. The paperwork on file is what keeps the patient from an unexpected bill.
