No. The Elizabeth Hospice routes faxes to separate office lines, so medical records and the admissions and referral office do not share a number. Each office — records, intake, the clinical team — answers a different fax. Identify the destination before sending so nothing is misrouted. Which line is right depends on the office and branch, not the agency as a whole.
At minimum, the patient's name, date of birth, and medical record number belong on each page. State the specific The Elizabeth Hospice office the fax is for 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 The Elizabeth Hospice any time, though routine paperwork is worked during business hours. Routine records and intake are staffed on weekdays.
