Requests for copies or release of the records held by this office.
The System Office number is published for the Medical Records Authorization. Sutter gives a separate request process for radiology images, so choose the appropriate form before sending. A records authorization does not replace a referral to a care team.
Complete the Medical Records Authorization for chart records and identify the dates and recipient. If you need images rather than just reports, use the Radiology Images Authorization and its return instructions.
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.
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 Sutter Health before sending a duplicate.
Prepare a legible PDF, confirm the department and number, and review all pages before authorizing the fax. With DearFax, you can send online or prepare a workflow through ChatGPT, Codex and MCP. Save the transmission result with your records.
Healthcare organizations should confirm their compliance requirements before selecting a fax service. DearFax does not currently offer HIPAA compliance.
