faxing question ...sm
Posted By: wendy on 2009-03-20
In Reply to:
I was using WinFax PRO through the computer for faxing many files rather than the old print and put through a fax machine. BUT this program seems to be hanging up all the time, not faxing, etc.
Does anyone know of another program like this...where you just click on files and fax through the computer?
THANX FOR ANY HELP

Faxing
I would use a secure site for sending medical reports such as an FTP site. Faxing is not a secure way of sending and is not HIPPA compliant.
Faxing
I don't know since I have a stand alone fax. But I have faxed from my Quick Books and it worked. I just went to my spread sheet and did the Control P and hit the fax options on the printer selection and it let me go to the Fax Wizard. I will try it later today with one of my accounts and see if it works. But you would have to be careful to make sure that only their "selected" part of the spreadsheet gets sent to them just like when you print/fax it to them. But if you client does not have the Excel program on the computer you are sending it to, then they cannot open it. I will do more playing around this this later this afternoon as have to go and do pick up and deliveries now. Patti
faxing $
For all that you would be better off getting a printer w/fax. They are less than $100. Mine is an HP 5610v All In One w/the fax feed at the top, number pad for dialing, etc. Think I might have paid about $70 for it a year or so ago. I think I got it at Walmart.
Faxing
If you are going to do faxing on a regular basis, you should probably purchase a fax machine. That's what I had to finally do. Some time ago, I had to go to a currency exchange to fax something. The charge was $7.00 per page!!
Vonage & Faxing?
I've been wanting to get an internet phone service for a long time now, but am concerned about the faxing capabilities. I have an account of my own and I use e-fax to send the work back to the physicians. I've been told that VoIP services do not support e-fax and also that even regular faxing is extremely unreliable with VoIP. Anyone have any insight into this? I'd really like to switch, but I have to be able to e-fax! 
Internet faxing
Is internet faxing HIPPA compliant?
Faxing via computer
I have faxed documents through the computer at a couple of jobs I've worked in the past; however, I have no idea how this is set up. I am planning to buy a fax machine, but I was wondering if it would cheaper and/or easier to do by computer. Plus this would eliminate another piece of equipment on my desk. Thanks for any advice.
Charge for faxing
I am starting to fax reports to various places for my account. Some of these will include multiple pages to the same place and some will be only one page. Can anyone tell me what the going rates are for this service? Thanks!
online faxing
Does anyone have a recommended site they use for online faxing?
faxing without a fax machine
Several jobs I worked in the past allowed the capability to send a fax through the computer without using a fax machine. However, I have no idea that program was set up but would really like something similar at home. I can't figure out where to start. Anyone know anything about this?
Thanks.
Faxing and HIPAA concerns
I need to know the regulations imposed by HIPAA for MTSOs faxing medical reports to referring doctors. Thanks.
HIPAA faxing guidelines
Fax only when necessary, always verify fax number and ALWAYS use cover sheet. Do not fax hypersensitive PHI. 
Charge for faxing reports (sm)
I did a search and can't seem to find this topic. An office that I transcribe for has a new type of report that they would like faxed to the referring physician. I have a fax and am willing to do it, but I'm not sure what to charge. Would you charge by the page or by the report (mostly 1 page but sometimes 2 plus cover page)? Thanks much for your input. KM
great faxing service
My girlfriend signed up for a new faxing service with Packtel. It's only $3.95 per month for unlimited faxing, I'm getting a fax from her right now on fax machine, and I gotta say that the quality of the print beats to pants off eFax. If anyone would like to check it out, here's the link:
legal issues w/faxing reports
i have always refusing the faxing of reports to offices.. i believe this is illegal if the MD signature is not on the paper. if you are a "contractor" for this office, you are not covered in way, shape or form legally under any insurance policy but your own. I would refuse the faxing of reports.
However, it's illegal in my state to do unsolicited broadcast faxing.
I had intended on doing this years ago, but I was told we can't.
Always! When emailing my resume, my email acts as my cover letter and when faxing, I always have a
Your cover letter says much more about you than your resume ever can. Your resume lists your education, your jobs, and highlights your skills. In your cover letter, you have an opportunity to sum up how many years total experience you have and get specific about certain things you've accomplished at certain jobs.
