How a referral reaches Indiana Wound Care
Because Indiana Wound Care takes referred patients, a diabetic, venous, or pressure wound arrives as a faxed referral with the history and photos so the wound team can triage it. Confirm whether the referral goes to intake, the referral coordinator, or the front desk before you send. Put the patient's identifiers and the referring provider on every page.
Wound-assessment notes from Indiana Wound Care to the referring provider
After each visit, Indiana Wound Care faxes a wound-assessment note back to the referring provider: the measurements, the wound's appearance, photo documentation, the debridement performed, and the updated treatment plan. Clear photo documentation and dimensions are what let a referring provider judge whether the wound is healing. Keep the confirmation so the chart shows the update was communicated.
Keeping wound records to Indiana Wound Care HIPAA-compliant
Anything with a patient's wound, images, or history headed to Indiana Wound Care is protected data under HIPAA.

Faxing to Indiana Wound Care — FAQ
Put the patient's full name, date of birth, and the referring provider on every page. State the specific staff the fax is for — referral, authorization, or records — on the cover sheet. Send it as one combined PDF so the pages and photos stay in order. The identifiers matter as much as the records themselves.
Faxes reach Indiana Wound Care whenever you send them, and the clinic hours help, though authorization and records work follows a business-day schedule. A wound-care center is staffed across the clinic day. Send anything routine early in the day so it does not wait over a closed office. Expect same-day handling for a document sent while the center is open.
Faxing wound records to Indiana Wound Care is fine under HIPAA as long as the service is compliant. HIPAA turns on using a compliant, encrypted service rather than a public one. Send FAX Mail covers HIPAA on the Professional ($39.99/month) and Business ($79.99/month) plans for documents going to Indiana Wound Care. Compliance is about how the pages travel, not only where they land at Indiana Wound Care.
The right number depends on which staff should receive the document. Reach Indiana Wound Care by phone and confirm the fax it uses today. Keep the working number with the patient's chart for next time. A confirmed line beats a guessed one on documents this sensitive.
