UCLA Health Fax Number — Send Medical Records and Referrals

UCLA Health spreads its fax intake across many clinics and departments rather than running one number that reaches the whole system. A medical records request, a physician referral, and an insurance pre-authorization each tend to land at a different desk, so the line you want depends on what you are sending and the office that needs it. Call the specific UCLA Health department first and ask for the fax number tied to that function before you send anything with patient information on it.

What You Can Fax to UCLA Health

  • Medical records and patient history
  • Physician referral forms
  • Insurance pre-authorization requests
  • Prescription requests and renewals
  • Lab and imaging results
Tip: Put the patient's full name, date of birth, and medical record number on every page so UCLA Health staff can match the documents without hunting. Name the receiving department or the ordering physician on the cover sheet, since that is what determines whether your fax reaches the right clinic or stalls in a general intake. For protected health information, send through an encrypted, HIPAA-compliant service rather than a plain fax machine.

Faxing to UCLA Health — FAQ

No. UCLA Health assigns fax numbers by department and clinic, so a records request and a referral go to separate lines. Identify the specific office you need and ask that office for its current fax number.

Include the patient's full name, date of birth, and medical record number, plus the name of the receiving department or ordering physician. That detail lets UCLA Health route the documents to the correct team instead of a shared queue, and it reduces the chance the fax is rejected or set aside.

Yes. Prescription requests, renewals, and lab or imaging results are routinely faxed to UCLA Health, but each typically goes to the relevant clinic or pharmacy rather than a single intake line. Confirm the number for that particular office before sending.

It is, as long as the service encrypts the transmission and handles the data under HIPAA. Send FAX Mail's Business plan at $79.99/month covers that compliance and encryption for protected health information sent to a hospital.

The medical records department generally works Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM local time, and will handle your fax during those hours. Emergency departments accept faxes around the clock when a patient's care requires it.
