How fax intake works

Your existing fax line stays the same. You point delivery to AutoRx's intake endpoint through your fax-to-cloud provider — every inbound image gets forwarded automatically. AutoRx accepts raw TIFF and PDF faxes, multi-page documents, and batch transmissions.

Each document is assigned a unique intake ID on arrival. Multi-page faxes are split into individual prescription units where possible. Duplicate detection prevents the same fax from being processed twice, even if your fax provider retries delivery.

What the AI reads

The parsing pipeline runs in layers, not a single OCR pass.

Image normalization

De-skew, contrast adjustment, and noise reduction before any text extraction.

Field extraction

Patient name, DOB, provincial health number, prescriber, drug, strength, form, sig, quantity, and refills — identified by position and context, not pattern matching alone.

Sig interpretation

Shorthand codes, Latin abbreviations (QID, PRN, HS), and freehand variations are resolved to plain-language directions before Kroll mapping.

Confidence scoring

Each field gets a confidence level. Fields below threshold route to review rather than proceeding to write.

What AutoRx handles that OCR alone cannot

Handwritten Rxs

Full or partial handwritten prescriptions are parsed by the vision agent, not brittle text extraction.

Multi-drug faxes

Multiple prescriptions on a single page are split into individual processing units automatically.

French-language Rxs

French prescription formats and terminology are handled natively.

Non-standard forms

Pre-printed forms with variable completion quality are handled regardless of how they were filled.

Handwritten corrections

Corrections written over typed text are identified and the corrected value is used.

Prescriber shorthand

Non-standard sig notation specific to individual prescribers is resolved per source.

Volume and reliability

Fax intake is queue-based — AutoRx processes incoming documents in parallel, not sequentially. A Monday-morning surge of 200 faxes processes at the same throughput as a slow Tuesday afternoon. Kroll write failures retry automatically with exponential backoff. Permanent failures surface immediately in the dashboard with the original document attached and a clear failure reason. Your team resolves most exceptions in under 60 seconds.
