Frequently Asked Questions

How do I manage faxes and my referrals?2024-09-17T09:59:49-07:00
  • All inbound faxes are automatically routed to the Faxes work queue so users can quickly categorize them as new referrals, documents for existing patients, or nonpatient documents.
  • Faxes flagged as new referrals are automatically routed to the Referrals work queue to be processed and managed like all the other referrals while documents for existing patients can be routed to other staff members for review or be automatically pushed to the EHR.
  • Weekly reports are automatically faxed to referring providers not using ReferralMD with the referral status for patients referred to your organization.
  • Outbound referrals can be sent via fax to providers not using ReferralMD using the fax numbers built into the system for nearly all of the 5 million providers in the US
  • The receiving provider’s office enters the invitation code from the fax, sets up a free account, updates the referral, and exchanges messages and files with your practice.
Can I use ReferralMD for eConsults?2024-03-18T23:10:34-07:00

Electronic consults allow PCP offices to initiate consults with specialists regarding specific patient cases and exchange messages and files securely online. If the specialist recommends a face-to-face visit for the patient then the consult is automatically converted to a referral and sent to the specialist. Otherwise, the consult is marked as completed. Consults are used by organizations to reduce unnecessary face-to-face visits and improve the patient experience. We also partner with ConferMED with a network of over 150 specialists who focus on e-consults.

Can I send referrals via fax to providers who don’t use ReferralMD?2024-03-18T23:08:59-07:00

Outbound referrals can be sent via fax to providers not using ReferralMD using the fax numbers built into the system for nearly all of the 5 million providers in the US.

How to automate fax processing?2025-06-17T08:35:18-07:00

ReferralMD transforms traditional fax workflows by automatically digitizing, extracting, and routing referral data, eliminating manual fax handling.

With ReferralMD, you can:

  • Automatically capture inbound faxes using our cloud-based fax integration

  • Convert faxes into digital referrals using OCR (optical character recognition) and data extraction tools

  • Pre-fill referral forms and auto-route them to the correct provider or department

  • Flag missing information for review before intake

  • Track and manage all faxes in a centralized, searchable queue

This automation ensures that no referral gets lost in a pile of paper or a busy inbox, while saving staff time and accelerating response and scheduling.

What is deep EHR scheduling write-back?2026-08-25T10:25:32-07:00

Deep EHR scheduling write-back is a bidirectional integration that lets ReferralMD read real-time availability, apply an organization’s scheduling rules, and create the selected appointment directly in the connected EHR, practice management system, or scheduling system—rather than generating a request that staff must enter manually.

It can also update referral and appointment records so the confirmed booking and the connected system stay aligned. Unlike a one-way integration, deep write-back closes the loop from availability check to booked appointment, reducing duplicate entry and reconciliation work.

Supported actions—including patient matching, rescheduling, cancellations, and exception handling—depend on each connected system and its configuration.
