What sets Innoport apart

A HIPAA fax platform built around control, flexibility and practical healthcare operations

The best HIPAA compliant fax service should do more than claim security. It should give your organization sensible choices for protecting data, administering users and numbers, scaling volume, supporting workflows and controlling cost.

Healthcare customers transmitting PHI can add the Healthcare Add-On, which includes the protections of an Intellicomm HIPAA business associate agreement.

Multiple secure delivery options

Support workflows using SMTP over TLS, encrypted PDF, Secure FTP and SSL secure website access.

Centralized web management

Use a secure portal for real-time number provisioning, fax history and management features across your organization.

Scale from practice to enterprise

Add or remove fax numbers as needs change and support anything from a small practice to distributed healthcare operations.

No busy signals

Receive simultaneous inbound fax calls on Innoport numbers so important documents do not get blocked by a single busy line.

No long-term contract

Keep flexibility as your organization evolves, without locking the fax service into a long-term commitment.

Go beyond fax intake

Fax remains essential, but not every patient, provider or partner should have to send a fax. Innoport Managed File Upload gives organizations a modern web-based path for receiving documents while keeping fax available for the workflows that still depend on it.

Offer choice

Let customers, patients or providers send documents by fax or secure upload depending on what works best.

Reduce friction

Create a cleaner digital intake path that can reduce poor scans, missing pages and manual back-and-forth.

Centralize intake strategy

Modernize document receipt without forcing an abrupt replacement of established fax workflows.

Buyer guidance

Questions healthcare organizations should ask before choosing a HIPAA fax provider

A useful comparison goes beyond a HIPAA label. Evaluate the contract structure, BAA, delivery methods, administration, integration, support and operational fit.

How does Innoport assist with HIPAA compliance?

HIPAA compliance involves more than choosing the right technology. Customers transmitting Protected Health Information (PHI) under U.S. HIPAA regulations must add the Healthcare Add-On and configure their account settings appropriately for their specific data protection needs. The Healthcare Add-On includes the protections provided under an Intellicomm Business Associate Agreement (BAA).

Can we keep our existing fax numbers?

Innoport supports fax number porting, helping organizations move existing numbers while minimizing disruption to established clinical communication paths.

Can a multi-site healthcare organization manage many fax numbers?

Yes. Innoport supports real-time number provisioning and centralized web management designed to scale from smaller practices to larger, distributed use cases.

What secure delivery methods are available?

Options include SMTP over TLS, encrypted PDF, Secure FTP and SSL secure website access. The appropriate configuration depends on your organization's workflow and security requirements.

Can Innoport integrate with applications?

Yes. Innoport offers an HTTPS Fax API for application-driven sending and mission-critical workflows, alongside email and web-based fax options.

Why consider Innoport instead of a basic cloud fax provider?

Innoport combines core fax convenience with advanced delivery choices, centralized administration, API integration, simultaneous inbound fax support, experienced U.S.-based support, flexible billing and a secure file upload alternative.

Why not get started with Innoport today?

One healthcare communication platform, multiple ways to move critical documents

Start with secure fax, add advanced delivery and API capabilities when needed, and expand into secure web-based document intake without abandoning the workflows your partners still use.
