Faxing records to Natividad Medical Center is fine under HIPAA as long as the service is compliant. A consumer app is not enough; the channel has to be encrypted and compliant, which rules out shared office machines. Send FAX Mail includes HIPAA from the Professional plan at $39.99/month and encrypts documents in transit for records bound for Natividad Medical Center. A secure send protects both you and the patient whose chart it is.

Get it from the office that will receive the document rather than an old listing. Check Natividad Medical Center's medical-records page, then verify the line by phone. Confirming the line first is a two-minute step that prevents a misrouted record. That confirmation is the difference between a delivered record and a lost one.

Clinic and eligibility forms route to the individual clinic or to case management. Confirm the office first, then send the signed forms. Include name, date of birth, and record number so nothing is orphaned. Name the receiving office on the cover sheet so it is not misrouted. Doing it that way avoids the most common cause of a delay.
