Faxing to Larkin Mortuary — FAQ
A funeral home like Larkin Mortuary is generally not a HIPAA-covered entity, so HIPAA usually does not govern these documents. That said, a death certificate, an insurance assignment, and a benefit claim are still personal and sensitive. The practical rule is simple — send them securely and to a number you have confirmed. Either way, a private channel and a confirmed number are the sensible steps.
A number copied from a search result may be stale; Larkin Mortuary has the current one. Call Larkin Mortuary and ask the funeral director for the current office fax. Keep the working number with the family's papers for the days ahead. A confirmed line beats a guessed one on documents this personal.
Some paperwork at Larkin Mortuary still goes by fax; other steps are now electronic. An insurance assignment may still be faxed even when the death certificate is filed electronically. When fax is the right channel, a secure online fax gets it there without a machine. The channel that works is whichever one the office actually asks for.
A cremation or burial authorization, a claim form, and vital-statistics details are the documents most often sent. For a veteran, the family may fax discharge papers for the VA burial-benefit claim. Send each as one complete, legible fax so nothing is missing when staff review it. When in doubt, ask Larkin Mortuary what it needs before you send anything.
