Where the Wound Away fax number actually comes from
The reliable way to fax Wound Away is to ask the center for its working line. A larger center may take some documents through a portal or a records office, so confirm Wound Away still accepts fax for your request. Confirming the line first is a two-minute step that prevents a misrouted referral.
The fax setup at a wound center like Wound Away
A diabetic limb-salvage and wound center like Wound Away typically keeps one or two working fax lines rather than a hospital's web of department numbers. A new-patient referral, an authorization request, and a records request can each land with a different staff member on the same line. Verify the current fax with Wound Away first, and the rest is straightforward.
HIPAA and your fax to Wound Away
Faxing wound-care records to Wound Away is allowed, but the service you use has to protect them. HIPAA permits faxing PHI over a compliant, encrypted service — not a shared machine at the office or a free app. Send FAX Mail includes HIPAA and encryption starting at $39.99/month, so wound records headed to Wound Away travel over a compliant channel instead of a shared machine.
Faxing to Wound Away — FAQ
That is routine; Wound Away sends the assessment and any debridement note to the referring provider and co-managing specialists. Confirm the office's fax so the photos are not sent to a stale line. The note states the measurements, the wound's stage or grade, and the plan for the next visit so the office can coordinate. Keep the confirmation until the note is acknowledged.
Hyperbaric oxygen runs on documented medical necessity, so Wound Away faxes the covered indication, the Wagner grade, and the failed-conservative-therapy record to the payer before a course starts. Name the patient, the diagnosis, and the covered indication so the authorization is matched. The packet names the covered indication, the wound grade, and the conservative therapy already tried. Keep the confirmation for the chart.
Yes, and a support-surface or specialty-mattress order is faxed so the patient has the right surface at home. The more complete the order, the faster the supplier can fill it. The order names the device, the wound diagnosis, and the documentation the supplier needs for coverage. Keep the confirmation for the chart.
Every page should carry the patient's name and the referring provider or wound location. On the cover sheet, name the health-information staff or the receiving staff so it lands with the right person. Attach the signed release or authorization when the fax is a records request or an authorization packet. A missing referring provider is the usual reason a fax sits in a queue at Wound Away.
For a diabetic-foot wound, Wound Away faxes an urgent referral, a vascular-study result, a total-contact cast or offloading order to the DME supplier, and coordinated referrals to vascular surgery and podiatry.

Name the receiving staff on the cover sheet so it is not misrouted. The result is a clean hand-off to the right staff at Wound Away.
