Frequently Asked Questions
Find quick answers to the most common questions about Fast 602's 602a form facilitation services.
What is a 602a form and why is it required?
A 602a form (Physician's Report) is a crucial document required by the State of California for residents entering or residing in a Residential Care Facility for the Elderly (RCFE). It provides essential medical information about the resident's health status, diagnoses, medications, and care needs, ensuring the RCFE can provide appropriate care and remain compliant with state regulations.
What documents do I need to provide for the 602a form?
You will need to securely upload the resident's Health & Physical (H&P) reports or Discharge (DC) summaries from a hospital or skilled nursing facility. These documents provide the comprehensive medical history necessary for our professionals to accurately complete the 602a form.
How long does it take to get a completed 602a form?
Our streamlined process is designed for efficiency. Depending on when the request is submitted, a version of the 602a form without complete TB clearance can often be available within 24 hours. The biggest potential hangup in the full completion of the form is the Tuberculosis (TB) clearance. If a resident has not had a TB clearance within the last three months, a new clearance will need to be obtained, which can extend the overall timeline. Our team will coordinate this process to ensure timely completion.
Is a telehealth visit with the resident required?
Yes, as part of our comprehensive service and to ensure thorough assessment and compliance, we coordinate a scheduled telehealth face-to-face meeting between the resident and one of our qualified medical professionals (MD/DO, PA, or NP).
How do I receive the completed 602a form?
Once signed and completed, the 602a form will be automatically emailed to your registered RCFE administrator email address via a secure link. You will also have access to download the form from your secure client dashboard at any time.
Is Fast 602 HIPAA compliant?
