Faxing a Document, Form, or Chart Note

Using Healthie's HIPAA-Compliant e-Fax, you can send client chart notes, documents (e.g., lab reports) and other files to other providers electronically. This is useful for sharing client-related information with other healthcare professionals that are outside of your Healthie Organization. You do not need a physical Fax machine to send e-Faxes through the platform.

  • You can e-Fax multiple documents at once; to do this, please select the documents you'd like to include. 
  • If you have a non PDF document that you'd like to e-Fax, convert it to a PDF
