University of Chicago Medical Center Fax Number — Send Medical Records and Referrals

University of Chicago Medicine, on the Hyde Park campus, takes faxed records, referrals, and pre-authorization paperwork at department-specific numbers rather than one central line. The Health Information Management office that handles medical records is a different fax than a clinic intake or a physician's office, so the right number depends on what you are sending and who needs it. Confirm the department's line before you fax patient information.
