Faxing to Penn Presbyterian Medical Center — FAQ

Penn Presbyterian Medical Center does not publish a single fax for the whole hospital. The line for Health Information Management is separate from the one for referrals. Identify the destination before sending so nothing is misrouted. Which line is right depends on the office, not the hospital as a whole.

At minimum, the patient's name, date of birth, and medical record number belong on each page. Note the target office — Health Information Management, a clinic, or prior authorization — on the cover sheet. With identifiers and destination clear, nothing gets misrouted. The identifiers matter as much as the records themselves.

You can send to Penn Presbyterian Medical Center any time, though routine paperwork is worked during business hours. Processing at Health Information Management generally runs Monday through Friday during business hours. Urgent transfers and clinical faxes are received at any hour regardless of the office schedule. Routine copies follow the office's normal queue rather than jumping ahead.

It is, provided your fax service is HIPAA-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 and encryption from $39.99/month for faxes to Penn Presbyterian Medical Center. Compliance is about how the pages travel, not only where they land at Penn Presbyterian Medical Center.
