Guardian Medflight Fax Number — Request a Run Report
Getting a copy of a transport record from Guardian Medflight starts with a completed release-of-information request; here is where to send it. Guardian Medflight is an air-medical program in Carson City, Nevada, providing critical-care air-medical transport — helicopter and fixed-wing transport of critically ill and injured patients between scenes and hospitals in the Great Basin. Because a transport record is protected health information, this guide covers both where to send it and how to keep the transmission compliant.

The records-request path at Guardian Medflight
A run report from Guardian Medflight moves once the authorization is verified and the requester's identity and right to the record are confirmed. A complete request — identifiers, date of transport, and record wanted — is filled fastest. Put the patient's identifiers and the transport date on every page so the request is matched.
Identifiers your fax to Guardian Medflight needs
Documents that arrive at Guardian Medflight without identifiers are the ones that get set aside. Put the patient's full name, date of birth, and the date of transport on every page. Keeping the pages in one job avoids a half-received document at Guardian Medflight.
HIPAA and your fax to Guardian Medflight

Encryption in transit and a compliant provider are what keep the transmission within the rules. Send FAX Mail's Professional plan ($39.99/month) and Business plan ($79.99/month) both include HIPAA coverage and encryption for documents bound for Guardian Medflight.
Faxing to Guardian Medflight — FAQ
That is standard; Guardian Medflight sends the run report to the hospital's emergency department after the transport. A patient or attorney gets a copy of the report by filing a release with Guardian Medflight's records staff. A critical hand-off is flagged so the emergency department sees the report before arrival. That one step keeps the transport documented end to end.
For a scheduled non-emergency transport, Guardian Medflight usually needs a physician certification statement — the doctor's signed certification that the patient's condition requires the transport. Include the certification period so the form covers the scheduled transports it needs to. Confirm Guardian Medflight's current fax for the certification before the office sends it.
Label each page with the patient's name, date of birth, and the run number. State the specific desk the fax is for on the cover sheet. That routing detail is what lets Guardian Medflight reconnect the documents if they separate. Clear labeling is what keeps a multi-page document together at Guardian Medflight.
A transport agency is staffed 24/7 for crews and dispatch, so an incoming fax is received any time, while records paperwork moves during office hours. A transport agency is staffed whenever a call could come in, and the office during business hours. A records request sent after hours is picked up the next business day. A quick call ahead helps staff watch for a time-sensitive page.
Guardian Medflight coordinates critical-care air transport by fax — the transfer packet in, the patient care report to the receiving hospital out. Get the current fax from Guardian Medflight directly. Send the packet as one PDF so no lab value or order is cut off. Send the whole packet as one job so nothing arrives split. Doing it that way avoids the most common cause of a delay.
