Faxing to Mission Hospice & Home Care — FAQ
No. Mission Hospice & Home Care routes faxes to separate office lines, so medical records and the admissions and referral office do not share a number. As a nonprofit community hospice, it splits incoming faxes across medical records, intake, and the hospice care team. Confirm the correct line for the office you are reaching before you send. Keep the confirmed number with the patient's file so you are not searching next time.
Put the patient's full name, date of birth, and medical record number on every page. State the specific Mission Hospice & Home Care office the fax is for on the cover sheet. Attach the signed ROI authorization when the fax is a records request. Complete, legible identifiers are what move the request fastest.
Faxes reach Mission Hospice & Home Care whenever you send, but when they are handled varies by office. Routine records and intake are staffed on weekdays. The hospice on-call line handles urgent comfort-care orders after hours. Plan routine requests for a weekday morning when the office is fully staffed.
It is, provided your fax service is HIPAA-compliant. An unsecured machine in a shared space cannot promise the confidentiality the rules expect. Send FAX Mail includes HIPAA from the Professional plan at $39.99/month and encrypts documents in transit for records bound for Mission Hospice & Home Care. The safeguard is the service you use, not the act of faxing.
