The referral and workup Nurture Genetics receives
When the referring physician refers a patient to Nurture Genetics, the referral and the reason for it — the personal and family history, recent labs, and any prior testing — are faxed over, and that inbound referral is the everyday document a genetics clinic receives. Include the medical history and any prior genetic testing so Nurture Genetics has the complete picture from the first visit. A quick call helps Nurture Genetics watch for a referred patient's record.
Building the pedigree before a visit at Nurture Genetics
A genetics evaluation at Nurture Genetics turns on the family history: a three-generation pedigree — who in the family had what condition and at what age — is faxed in ahead of the visit so the clinician can assess the pattern of inheritance. Send any relative's confirming record — a pathology report or a prior genetic result — with the history so it can be verified. Send the questionnaire and any attachments as one PDF so nothing arrives split.
HIPAA and your fax to Nurture Genetics
Because these documents hold sensitive genetic information — often about more than one relative — the transport to Nurture Genetics has to be compliant. A machine in a shared space cannot promise the confidentiality the rules — and these sensitive records — expect. On Send FAX Mail, HIPAA coverage is included from the $39.99/month Professional tier up, and every page to Nurture Genetics is encrypted in transit with a delivery confirmation.
Faxing to Nurture Genetics — FAQ
Release of information begins with a signed release request to the records staff. The records staff confirm the fax destination for the authorization. A complete request — identifiers, dates, and records wanted — moves fastest. Once processed, Nurture Genetics releases the records to you or the party you named.
Many genetic tests need prior authorization, so Nurture Genetics faxes the request, the medical-necessity letter, and the supporting history to the payer. A prior-authorization request states the test, the clinical indication, and the supporting family history. Put the member ID and patient identifiers on every page so it is matched. Once authorized, Nurture Genetics can order the test with the approval on file.
Nurture Genetics is usually reached at one or two lines that cover the whole office. The line is shared, but the person who works it varies by request. Verify the working fax with Nurture Genetics first, since an office's numbers change. Keep the confirmed number with the patient's file so you are not searching next time.
That is the standard path; the referring office faxes the referral and workup to Nurture Genetics so care starts without a gap. Confirm Nurture Genetics's working referral line before the referring office sends it. The sending office's contact details let Nurture Genetics follow up without a second request. A quick call confirms Nurture Genetics received the referral if a consult is coming up.
