Faxing to LECOM School of Dental Medicine — FAQ
Increasingly, parts of the process at LECOM School of Dental Medicine move online. A predetermination may be submitted through the payer's portal while other attachments go by fax. Check the office's instructions first; if fax is accepted, this page shows how to send it cleanly. A two-minute check saves a misrouted or rejected document.
The current line comes from the office itself, so ask the staff for it. Use LECOM School of Dental Medicine's website or your paperwork, then confirm the fax is still monitored. That one verification keeps a dental record out of the wrong hands. The office that receives the fax is the authority on its own number.
A records release, a set of X-rays, and a predetermination request are the documents most often sent. When you move, the complete chart is sent to the new dentist. Confirm first whether LECOM School of Dental Medicine wants it by fax or through a records or claims portal. A quick call to LECOM School of Dental Medicine avoids sending a form the office no longer accepts by fax.
Include the identifiers staff use to match a chart: the patient's name, date of birth, and the member ID on a claim. On the cover sheet, name the document and address it to the patient records or clinic-admissions office so it reaches the right desk. That labeling is what lets LECOM School of Dental Medicine reconnect the pages if they separate. A missing date of birth is a common reason a fax sits unmatched at LECOM School of Dental Medicine.
LECOM School of Dental Medicine runs several teaching clinics, so the receiving clinic decides where the fax goes. Verify the clinic first, since a teaching hospital routes records by department. Send the referral and imaging together so the clinic can triage it. Keep the transmission confirmation in case you need to show it went through. It is a small step that spares you a follow-up call.
