Cleveland Clinic: urgent records after hours
Urgent records requests after 5 p.m. and on weekends under the published location instructions.
Which Cleveland Clinic fax number should I use?
Use the records authorization number for routine requests. The source also gives a different number for urgent requests after 5 p.m. and on weekends. Its urgent-request instructions cover Ohio and Florida except Weston Hospital; Weston has its own records contact. Confirm the location on the current form before sending.
What to include in your fax to Cleveland Clinic
Send the signed, dated Authorization for Release of Medical Information with the records and treatment dates identified. If you need radiology images, follow the separate image-request instructions rather than assuming a written report includes the images.
Check the destination and prepare your cover page
Name the receiving department and the hospital, clinic or service involved. Add the document title, page count and a callback number. Put patient identifiers and authorization details in the fields the official form requests; a cover page does not replace signed consent.
Open the official source above and check the current instructions. A reviewed source confirms a published number, not live availability. Toll-free numbers can still incur sending-service or international charges.
Confirm delivery and follow up with Cleveland Clinic
Keep the transmission result and a copy of the documents. Confirm with the receiving department that the packet is complete and can be processed; a delivery receipt does not establish acceptance or a decision. These are fax destinations, not voice support lines. Check with Cleveland Clinic before sending a duplicate.
