Finding the right office to fax at MUSC Medical Center

The right number for MUSC Medical Center depends entirely on which office should receive the document. Call the MUSC Medical Center main line and ask for Health Information Management or the clinic you are reaching. That one confirmation call is what keeps the documents out of the wrong queue.
