ποΈ View video tutorial: Using a fax cover page
When you generate a PDF document within the TELUS Collaborative Health Record (CHR), you can choose to add a cover page.
Adding a cover page enables you to reply to information requests received via fax, provide additional details for a pharmacy request, or ask additional questions relating to an incoming referral in lieu of being able to annotate on the document itself.
You usually perform this step before you fax a document.
