Faxing to The Orthopaedic Institute Surgery Ctr — FAQ

Faxing records to The Orthopaedic Institute Surgery Ctr is fine under HIPAA as long as the service is compliant. The risk is not the fax itself but an unsecured tool, so a free app or a public machine will not do. Send FAX Mail covers HIPAA on the Professional ($39.99/month) and Business ($79.99/month) plans for documents going to The Orthopaedic Institute Surgery Ctr. The safeguard is the service you use, not the act of faxing.

Get it from the office that will receive the document rather than an old listing. The referring physician's office often already has the correct The Orthopaedic Institute Surgery Ctr fax on file. Keep the working number with the patient's file for next time. Skip the stale listing and confirm the line at the source.

Release of information begins with a signed ROI request to the records office. The office names the current fax once your request is on file. Name the records and the procedure date so the office can pull them without a follow-up. Once processed, The Orthopaedic Institute Surgery Ctr releases the records to you or the party you named.

No. The Orthopaedic Institute Surgery Ctr routes faxes to separate office lines, so health information and surgical scheduling do not share a number. What you send to health information will not reach surgical scheduling. Match the office to your document, then send to that specific line. Keep the confirmed number with the patient's file so you are not searching next time.
