Faxing PHI to Methodist Hospice the compliant way
A patient's records are protected health information, so how you fax them to Methodist Hospice matters. A walk-in machine in a shared space cannot promise the confidentiality the rules expect.

Bereavement and continuing-care forms at Methodist Hospice
Faxing a bereavement or continuing-care form to Methodist Hospice means reaching the office that supports families after a death.

Confirming the right fax at Methodist Hospice
Office fax numbers at Methodist Hospice change with staffing and reorganizations, so confirm before you send. Ask the discharging hospital's case manager or discharge planner, who often already has the correct Methodist Hospice fax on file. Once you have the working number from Methodist Hospice, keep it with the patient's file for next time.
Faxing to Methodist Hospice — FAQ
Faxing records to Methodist Hospice is fine under HIPAA as long as the service is compliant. The risk is not the fax itself but an unsecured tool, so a free app or a public machine will not do. Send FAX Mail's Business plan at $79.99/month is HIPAA-compliant and suited to charts sent to Methodist Hospice. Handled that way, the records stay within the rules end to end.
Get it from the office that will receive the document rather than an old listing. The discharging hospital's case manager often already has the correct Methodist Hospice fax on file. That one verification keeps sensitive pages out of the wrong queue. Note the number the first time so the next fax to Methodist Hospice is quicker.
Release of information begins with a signed ROI request to the records office. The office names the current fax once your request is on file. Include the patient's name, date of birth, and the record types and date range. They release the copies to the recipient you named after processing.
No. Documents go to different fax lines at Methodist Hospice depending on the office. What you send to medical records will not reach the hospice care team.
