Fax Inbox

Live today

Healthcare fax management software that turns faxes into referrals

Every inbound fax lands in a triage queue, gets OCR'd and read by AI, and is linked to a client or turned into a New Intake card — in minutes, with the source document attached.

What is the TargetFlo Fax Inbox?

The TargetFlo Fax Inbox is healthcare fax management software for ABA therapy centers. It syncs inbound faxes from RingCentral and other cloud fax providers into a triage queue, runs OCR and Gemini AI extraction on every page, and links the document to a client record or a referral card in the intake pipeline. Extracted PHI is stored in an isolated schema — see Security & Compliance.

How it works

Fax to pipeline stage in five steps

Referring physicians still fax. Your team should not have to print, read, retype, and forward.

  1. 01

    Fax arrives

    RingCentral (or your provider) delivers the document to TargetFlo. It appears in the triage queue for the right location.

  2. 02

    OCR and AI extract

    Pages are OCR'd; Gemini extracts referral fields with a confidence score and redacts nothing you need to see.

  3. 03

    Coordinator triages

    Review the extraction side by side with the page image. Accept, correct, or flag for follow-up.

  4. 04

    Link or create referral

    Attach to the suggested client or referral, or create a new New Intake card with the client record behind it.

  5. 05

    Pipeline stage advances

    The referral moves with its documents attached; the fax is archived with a full audit trail.

Capabilities

What the triage queue does for intake coordinators

RingCentral sync (live)

Inbound webhooks deliver every fax to TargetFlo within seconds; a periodic sync backfills anything a webhook missed.

Triage queue

Every fax lands in a queue with sender, page count, arrival time, and a status: needs review, OCR complete, linked, or archived.

OCR on every page

Scanned referral packets become searchable text — including handwritten cover sheets — so nobody retypes a phone number.

Gemini AI extraction

Referral type, referring provider, client name, DOB, payer, and diagnosis code are extracted with a confidence score.

Link to client or referral

TargetFlo suggests the matching client or referral card. Confirm with one click, or create a new referral from the fax.

Create referral from fax

A new fax becomes a New Intake card with the client record, extracted fields, and the source document already attached.

Time-to-link tracking

The dashboard shows how many faxes are waiting and how long they wait, by location — a leading indicator of referral leakage.

PHI-safe by design

Fax images and extracted PHI are stored in the isolated PHI schema and encrypted storage; queue metadata stays in ops.

OCR + Gemini AI extraction

Read the fax once. By software.

TargetFlo OCRs every page and asks Gemini to pull the fields an intake coordinator would otherwise type by hand. Each field has a confidence score; low-confidence fields are highlighted for review beside the page image.

  • Referral type, referring provider, client name, DOB, payer, and diagnosis code
  • Suggested match to an existing client or referral, ranked by confidence
  • Human confirms every extraction — AI assists, it never files on its own
  • Corrections are stored, so extraction quality is auditable over time

PHI-safe handling

The queue shows metadata. The record holds the PHI.

A fax is protected health information the moment it arrives. TargetFlo treats it that way: page images and extracted identity fields go to the isolated PHI schema and encrypted storage, while the triage queue works from sender, page count, and status.

  • Fax images stored encrypted in Google Cloud Storage with role-scoped access
  • Extracted client name, DOB, and member ID written only to the PHI schema
  • Every view, link, and download logged to the client's activity timeline
  • No fax content in SMS notifications — the PHI guard blocks it

ops schema

Sender number, pages, arrival time, queue status, assigned coordinator, time-to-link.

phi schema
