Faxing to Open Cities Health Center — FAQ
Yes — the concern is the tool you use, not the act of faxing. A patient's name, date of birth, and history are protected health information, so a free app or a shared office machine is the wrong channel. On Send FAX Mail you send from your phone or computer over an encrypted connection — safer for records to Open Cities Health Center than a public machine. Handled that way, the records stay protected end to end.
The current line comes from Open Cities Health Center directly, since site and department numbers change. Call the specific Open Cities Health Center clinic location and ask for the medical records office or the team you are reaching. Keep the working number with the patient's file for next time. A confirmed line beats a guessed one on documents this sensitive.
The answer varies by document and site at Open Cities Health Center. A records request, an ROI authorization, or an enrollment form is still commonly faxed even where referrals are online. Match the document to the channel Open Cities Health Center wants, and it lands with the right desk the first time. The channel that works is whichever one the site actually asks for.
No. Open Cities Health Center keeps a separate fax for records, referrals, and each clinic site, so there is no one central number. As a federally qualified health center, it splits incoming faxes across the medical records office and the individual clinic sites. Match the document to the department, then send to that specific line. Which line is right depends on the site, not the federally qualified health center as a whole.
