Faxing to Wounds on Wheels — FAQ
Faxing wound records to Wounds on Wheels is fine under HIPAA as long as the service is compliant. Faxing itself is accepted for PHI; the transport is what has to be secure. Send FAX Mail encrypts pages in transit and includes HIPAA starting at $39.99/month — safer for PHI headed to Wounds on Wheels than a shared machine. A secure send protects both you and the patient whose record it is.
Get it from the center itself rather than an old listing, since a center's numbers change. A larger center may take some documents through a records office, so confirm Wounds on Wheels still accepts fax for your request. A quick check beats faxing PHI to a number that has moved. That confirmation is the difference between a delivered referral and a lost one.
Release of information begins with a signed release request to the records staff. Wounds on Wheels verifies the patient's identity and the requester's authority before releasing the record. A complete request — identifiers, dates, and records wanted — moves fastest. Turnaround depends on the request; routine copies are handled in the order received.
Most likely one — a center like Wounds on Wheels keeps a single front-office fax more often than a bank of lines. One number does not mean one desk — the routing is by staff, not machine. Verify the working fax with Wounds on Wheels first, since a center's numbers change. When in doubt, ask Wounds on Wheels for the fax by the name of the desk.
