AdvancedMDCloud Faxing that integrates with 
Practice Fusion
Faxes arrive as readable documents, not a stack of paper. DashQuill reads each one, summarizes it, and proposes the Practice Fusion patient it belongs to. Filing it to that chart takes one click. If the patient does not exist yet, the fax itself can create them.
How it works
The tedious part of faxing is not receiving it. It is working out who it belongs to and getting it onto the right chart.
Keep or replace your number
Port the fax number referring offices already have, or start with a new one. Nothing physical is installed either way.
Faxes arrive read
Each fax arrives summarized, tagged by type, and matched to a Practice Fusion patient, rather than as an unlabeled page count.
File to the chart
Confirm the match, and the document files to that chart. If the person is not in the system yet, the fax can create the patient.
What practices say
DashQuill has streamlined our front-desk intake with an intuitive, all-in-one platform that keeps our team from bouncing between cumbersome technology stacks. Their team is consistently responsive and supportive and the dedicated domains make external sharing of forms simple and professional.
DashQuill came through for us when we desperately needed help. Across our 70+ providers, their AI system sorts up to 120,000 faxes a month, turning what used to be a huge burden on our staff into something fast and reliable.
Partnering with DashQuill has been a game-changer for our practice. Their seamless integration into our EHR system brought immediate improvements in workflow efficiency, reducing administrative burden and allowing our team to focus more on patient care.
I've been using DashQuill's HIPAA-compliant forms with my EHR, Practice Fusion, and I'm very happy with them. The forms are easy for patients to complete and seamlessly integrate into my workflow.
Before DashQuill, we had to manually create a contact for every patient in our secure texting system. Now that contacts sync automatically from our EHR, we can reach out instantly without any setup. It's made patient communication far more convenient.
DashQuill cut our paperwork to near zero. Patient forms now flow directly into our EHR system, saving our team hours each week and streamlining check-ins. Implementation was painless, and within days our forms were auto-uploading.
DashQuill was recommended to us, and within two weeks we completed online training and went live. Tim and John provided excellent support throughout the process, and we appreciate that our calls are answered promptly whenever assistance is needed.
The tagging system in DashQuill Faxing has made it so much easier to stay organized. We can quickly sort and find faxes by type or patient, and it's been a huge help for our office. Really glad this feature is built in.
When our office got very busy during COVID in 2020, DashQuill's patient forms were a lifesaver. They made it easy to speed up our entire intake process, which saved our staff countless hours and helped us keep up with the surge in patients. We still use the same setup today.
The EHR integration for messaging has been great. It's so convenient having all our patient texts connected directly to their charts. We had a few hiccups when hosting our phone number, but the DashQuill team was incredibly helpful and got everything sorted quickly.
With DashQuill's faxing, we turned a paper-heavy process into a fast, digital workflow. Now we have less printing, fewer errors, and more time to spend with patients.
Runs inside Practice Fusion, not beside it
A Chrome extension adds a DashQuill button to the Practice Fusion patient charts list and the appointments tab. Click it and the service opens over the page you already have open.
- One button, one menu: Forms, Faxes, Chats and Meet
- Opens as a window you can resize, move and minimise while you chart
- Same Practice Fusion login, no second tab or password
- Installed in minutes with a page reload; we walk you through it on a call
A fax can create the patient
Practice Fusion is the only integration where this works today. A referral for someone who has never been seen at your office does not need a manual new-patient entry before the document has somewhere to go.
- Create a new Practice Fusion patient from an inbound fax
- Or update an existing patient from what the fax contains
- Incoming documents are matched to Practice Fusion patients automatically
- Referrals can be generated from the chart and sent out
Sending works from the chart you are already in
Faxing a chart out is normally a print-scan-send loop. Here it starts from the Practice Fusion patient you have open, which also means the outbound copy is associated with the right person from the start.
- Fax a patient chart directly out of Practice Fusion
- Send from the chart without printing or rescanning
- Annotate, fill and sign inbound documents before forwarding
- Cover pages and recipients are reusable rather than retyped
One inbox, and it belongs to the practice
Faxes land in a shared inbox with provider and virtual sub-inboxes, so a referral for one physician is not buried in a queue everyone ignores. Documents are tagged and can be marked resolved, so you can tell what has been dealt with.
- Provider and virtual inboxes instead of one undifferentiated pile
- Tags assigned by an AI decision tree, plus resolved and unresolved status
- Search the inbox by patient name, date of birth or document type, all extracted by AI
- Split a combined multi-patient fax into separate documents

Questions we get asked first
The things Practice Fusion practices want settled before a demo.
Can we keep our existing fax number?
Yes. Numbers can be ported, so referring offices and pharmacies do not need to be told anything changed. You can also run a new number alongside the old one during a transition.
How good is the patient matching?
It proposes a match rather than filing silently. A person confirms before anything reaches a chart. Where the document is for someone not yet in Practice Fusion, the fax can create that patient instead of forcing a manual entry first.
What about a fax that contains records for several patients?
It can be split into separate documents and each part filed to its own chart. This is common with records requests and batched lab results.
Do we still need a fax machine or a phone line?
No. It is cloud faxing, so there is no analog line, no machine, and no toner. Staff work from the browser, which is also what makes the chart filing possible.
Does anything get filed without a person looking at it?
No. The AI does the reading, summarizing, and matching, but a staff member approves the filing. That keeps a misread document from ending up on the wrong chart.
Is it HIPAA compliant?
Yes. Documents are encrypted in transit and at rest, access is logged, and a Business Associate Agreement is signed during onboarding. Our HIPAA compliance page has the detail.
