Fax Setup
Avaros integrates directly with SRFax and Ring Central allowing users to receive faxes right into their EMR fax inbox and send out faxes from a variety of our EMR modules.
π‘SRFax is a great value for low-volume clinics that send fewer than 3,000 pages a month. RingCentral charges a flat-fee with is usually better for high-volume clinics.π‘
To begin, follow the steps for your clinic's chosen fax provider below
SRFax:
