FaxMonkey

Online fax for medical practices and healthcare

In healthcare, fax is still one of the most important communication channels. Whether referrals, lab results or doctors' letters, many medical facilities communicate exclusively by fax. With FaxMonkey, practices, clinics and laboratories can send faxes without running their own fax machine - from R19.00 per page.

Transmit referrals and results securely

When a patient needs to see a specialist urgently, every minute counts. With FaxMonkey your referral reaches the recipient in minutes - not days as with post. The transmission report records the exact time of delivery, important for patient documentation.

Why fax in healthcare?

While email dominates everyday life, it is often not suitable for medical documents. Unencrypted emails do not meet data protection requirements for patient data. Fax, on the other hand, is an established and accepted transmission channel in healthcare - between practices and with hospitals, laboratories and health insurers.

Always available - even without a practice fax machine

Fax machines require maintenance: paper jams, empty toner, faulty phone lines. With FaxMonkey you fax from any device with an internet connection - even if your practice fax machine is down. Also ideal for locum cover or when working outside the practice.

GDPR-compliant and secure

Patient data requires special protection. FaxMonkey transmits all data SSL-encrypted and deletes them automatically after successful delivery. This keeps patient data protected.

Transparent pricing with no subscription

You pay only when you actually send a fax - R19.00 for the first page, R4.75 for each additional one. No monthly fees, no maintenance costs for fax machines. Ideal for practices that only need to fax occasionally.
