Hello! Medical organizations still rely heavily on fax for referrals and records. I am interested in whether online faxing offers practical security improvements while supporting privacy regulations.

Hello! I found detailed information here: https://www.itsecurityguru.org/2025/01/22/is-online-fax-secure-everything-you-need-to-know/ It explains that online fax services can reduce risks by encrypting transmissions and limiting access to sensitive files. For healthcare teams, features like delivery confirmation and controlled retention support HIPAA compliance efforts. The material also points out that replacing shared physical fax machines can lower accidental exposure. Still, staff awareness and proper document handling remain critical.
