Surgical Specialties Fax Number — Send Pre-Op Clearance and H&P
Clearance and anesthesia paperwork for a case at Surgical Specialties route to the pre-op staff, so the destination depends on that office. Surgical Specialties is an independently operated ambulatory surgery center, a multispecialty ambulatory surgery center in Honolulu, Hawaii, serving patients and referring physicians across the Hawaiian Islands. Send the H&P with the medication list, clearance, and any labs so pre-op can review well before the day of surgery.

Faxing to Surgical Specialties — FAQ
No. Documents go to different fax lines at Surgical Specialties depending on the office. What you send to health information will not reach surgical scheduling. Confirm the correct line for the office you are reaching before you send. A quick call to Surgical Specialties settles which line your document should use.
Every page should carry the patient's 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. A missing identifier is the usual reason a fax sits in a queue at Surgical Specialties.
Incoming faxes to Surgical Specialties are never turned away by the hour, but processing is not always immediate. Processing at health information generally runs Monday through Friday during business hours. Because an ASC runs pre-booked procedure days, send pre-op paperwork well before the case. Flag anything time-sensitive on the cover sheet so it is not treated as routine.
