Vitalant Fax Number — Hospital Component Orders
A hospital drawing on Vitalant's supply faxes its component order and receives a packing manifest back; here is how, securely. Located in Tempe, Arizona, Vitalant is a blood center serving volunteer donors and the hospitals it supplies in the desert Southwest. Because orders and manifests reference protected information, this guide covers both where to send them and how to keep the transmission compliant.
Vitalant Fax Number
Call Vitalant and ask for donor records, the drive-scheduling desk, or hospital services depending on your document
Hours: A donor center keeps donor-floor hours across weekdays and often weekends for scheduled and walk-in donations, so the front desk receives a fax during collection hours, while the records staff who process release requests work a narrower weekday window.

Hospital component orders at Vitalant
Supplying hospitals is a defining blood-center workflow: a transfusion service faxes Vitalant an order for red cells, platelets, plasma, or cryoprecipitate, and a packing slip or manifest follows the delivery. Send the product, the quantity, and any special-attribute request together so the order is complete. Keep the confirmation so the record shows the order and manifest were exchanged.
Eligibility and deferral paperwork at Vitalant
Donor eligibility at Vitalant runs on records: the donor history questionnaire, any deferral notice, and the eligibility determination all move by fax when a donor's status has to be confirmed. Include the donor's identifiers so the record is matched to the donation history cleanly. Put the donor's name and date of birth on every page so it is matched.
The secure way to fax Vitalant
A fax to Vitalant that carries a donor's eligibility record, a test result, or a deferral notice is PHI and belongs on a secure channel. A machine in a shared space cannot promise the confidentiality the rules expect. Send FAX Mail encrypts pages in transit and includes HIPAA from the $39.99/month Professional plan, a safer route for donor records going to Vitalant than a public machine.
Faxing to Vitalant — FAQ
Incoming faxes to Vitalant are received across the center's collection hours, but processing of routine documents keeps to office hours. A center is staffed while donors are being seen. Send routine records and eligibility faxes during weekday hours so they are worked promptly. A quick call ahead helps staff watch for a time-sensitive page.
Faxing donor records to Vitalant is fine under HIPAA as long as the service is compliant. HIPAA turns on using a compliant, encrypted service rather than a public one. Send FAX Mail includes HIPAA from the Professional plan at $39.99/month and encrypts documents in transit for records bound for Vitalant. A secure send protects both you and the donor whose record it is.
Get it from the center itself rather than an old listing, since a center's numbers change. Reach Vitalant by phone and confirm the fax it uses today. Confirming the line first is a two-minute step that prevents a misrouted donor record. That confirmation is the difference between a delivered record and a lost one.
Typically a single donor-services fax, occasionally a separate donor-records or hospital-services line. Even so, an eligibility record, a deferral notice, and a hospital order may go to different staff on that one line. Confirm the current line and the right staff with Vitalant before you send. When in doubt, ask Vitalant for the fax by the name of the desk.
From a donor questionnaire to a hospital's platelet order, Vitalant moves the document by fax to the desk that needs it. Give Vitalant the correct fax for donor records or hospital services depending on the document. Keep the confirmation until the document is acknowledged. Keep the transmission confirmation in case you need to show it went through. That keeps the request moving without a second round trip.
