New Birth Fax Number — Newborn Records and Screens
New Birth faxes the newborn record, the metabolic screen, the hearing screen, and the CCHD result to the baby's pediatrician; here is how, securely. New Birth, a freestanding birth center in Overland Park, Kansas, sends and receives prenatal records, results, and transfers by fax every day. Because a newborn's records are protected health information, this guide covers both where to send them and how to keep the transmission compliant.
New Birth Fax Number

Hours: The center's posted hours cover weekday prenatal visits, and a midwife is on call overnight for a birth, so a fax to the front desk lands during business hours; records and authorization paperwork is worked during weekday hours.

How the newborn screen reaches the pediatrician from New Birth
The newborn hand-off from New Birth closes the loop after a birth: the birth record, the newborn screen, and the follow-up plan reach the pediatrician. Send the birth record and the screening results together so the pediatrician is not waiting on a second fax. Confirm the pediatrician's fax before New Birth sends the newborn record.
The prenatal transfer New Birth receives
A prenatal transfer to New Birth carries what the midwife needs up front: the dating, the prenatal labs, the ultrasound reports, and the prior provider's notes. Flag anything the prior provider was following — a positive screen, say — so the midwife picks it up. Keep the confirmation so the sending office knows the prenatal record arrived.
Keeping records to New Birth HIPAA-compliant
A fax to New Birth that carries a prenatal record, a lab result, or a birth record is PHI and belongs on a secure channel. Encryption in transit and a compliant provider are what keep the transmission within the rules. Send FAX Mail encrypts pages in transit and includes HIPAA from the $39.99/month Professional plan, a safer route for patient records going to New Birth than a public machine.
Faxing to New Birth — FAQ
A birth center like New Birth collaborates with physicians, so a risk-out sends the record and the reason for transfer to the receiving OB or hospital. Providing the receiving office's fax speeds the transfer to the right team. A complete transfer means the receiving team is not chasing history mid-transfer. Send the record and the transfer note as one PDF so nothing arrives split.
Ask at the birth, and New Birth faxes the newborn record and screens to your baby's doctor. The more exact the destination, the faster the pediatrician files it. Your pediatrician needs the newborn screens, and the faxed record provides them. Ask New Birth to note the pediatrician on the cover sheet so it routes cleanly.
Label each page with the client's name and date of birth. State the specific staff the fax is for on the cover sheet. That routing detail is what lets New Birth reconnect the documents if they separate. The identifiers matter as much as the records themselves.
New Birth keeps weekday clinic hours for prenatal visits while a midwife is on call for labor, so the front desk can receive a fax during the clinic day, but the records staff who process release requests work a weekday window. A birth center is staffed while clients are being seen and on call overnight for labor. A records release sent after hours is picked up the next business day. Expect same-day handling for a result sent while the office is open.
