We still use FAX. No, seriously.
While it isn’t ubiquitous here in Australia by any means, fax still occupies some weird areas of law that make it common. When my doctor sends a referral it is almost always via fax, because email isn’t legal. Apparently, owning a phone number is more proof than owning an email address?
What’s hilarious is that most medical providers use fax-over-VoIP (yes, that’s apparently the term) anyway ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
fax over VoIP has to be the most stupid thing I've ever heard
