Faxing to Northwest Eye Specialists — FAQ
No. Northwest Eye Specialists routes faxes to separate office lines, so health information and surgical scheduling do not share a number. What you send to health information will not reach surgical scheduling. Confirm the correct line for the office you are reaching before you send. When in doubt, ask Northwest Eye Specialists for the office by name.
Include the identifiers staff use to match a surgical file: full name, date of birth, and procedure date. On the cover sheet, name health information or the receiving office so it lands with the right team. Attach the signed ROI authorization when the fax is a records request. Clear labeling is what keeps a multi-page record together at Northwest Eye Specialists.
Incoming faxes to Northwest Eye Specialists are never turned away by the hour, but processing is not always immediate. Scheduling and records offices work weekday business hours. Because an ASC runs pre-booked procedure days, send pre-op paperwork well before the case. Expect same-day handling for referrals sent early on a business day.
It is, provided your fax service is HIPAA-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 includes HIPAA from the Professional plan at $39.99/month and encrypts documents in transit for records bound for Northwest Eye Specialists. A secure send protects both you and the patient whose chart it is.
