What You Can Fax to SIHF Healthcare

  • Behavioral health and dental coordination notes
  • Referrals to specialists and hospitals
  • Medicaid and insurance enrollment paperwork
  • Medical records and release-of-information (ROI) authorizations
  • Sliding-fee-scale and financial-eligibility documents
Tip: Label each page with the patient's name, date of birth, and record number — those three identifiers are what staff use to match a chart at SIHF Healthcare. Address the cover sheet to the referral coordination team or the exact team you are reaching, and include a number where staff can reach you. Make sure the site still takes fax rather than a portal upload, and hold onto the delivery confirmation in case timing matters.

Faxing PHI to SIHF Healthcare the compliant way

A fax to SIHF Healthcare that carries a chart or an ROI authorization is protected health information. The safeguard the rules look for is a secure, private channel rather than the nearest convenient machine. Send FAX Mail's flat monthly plans start at $12.99/month with no per-page fees and a 7-day free trial, and each page to SIHF Healthcare travels over an encrypted connection.

What to put on a fax to SIHF Healthcare

Records that arrive at SIHF Healthcare without identifiers are the ones that get delayed. Include a signed ROI authorization when the fax is a records request, so it can be released. A delivery confirmation then tells you the pages reached SIHF Healthcare.

Tracking down the correct SIHF Healthcare fax

Because SIHF Healthcare spreads its fax lines across sites, a single published number rarely covers the office you actually need. Ask the referring provider's office, which often already has the correct SIHF Healthcare fax on file. Confirming the line first is a two-minute step that prevents a misrouted record.

Faxing to SIHF Healthcare — FAQ

It can be, with an encrypted service. Protected health information belongs on an encrypted connection rather than a public or ad-supported tool. For PHI, Send FAX Mail's HIPAA-eligible Professional plan ($39.99/month) supports a signed BAA and sends to SIHF Healthcare over a secure connection after a 7-day free trial. A secure send protects both you and the patient the record belongs to.

Ask the exact SIHF Healthcare site for its working fax before you send. Use SIHF Healthcare's records-request or referral instructions, which name where the completed document should go. A quick check beats faxing PHI to a number that has moved. That confirmation is the difference between a delivered record and a lost one.

Some SIHF Healthcare sites take fax; many referrals now move through a referral portal or secure upload. Some sites accept fax for a signed form but ask that referrals go through the portal. If the site asks for a portal upload, use it; if it accepts fax, confirm the current line. Guessing the channel is the usual reason a document has to be resent.

Not one central number. the medical records office, the referral coordination team, and the enrollment and eligibility team each keep their own line. Identify the destination before sending so nothing is misrouted. When in doubt, ask SIHF Healthcare for the site or department by name.
