Hello,
Could you guys suggest to me text to be used for "Confidentiality Statement" for a FAX Cover Page/Cover Sheet?

That is a good one.
I am not sure if there is any legal mumbo jumbo specific for each state.
I personally don't like these statements ... you're putting the onus on the receiver to correct your mistake.
I would add ", and we shall courier a chocolate fish to you for your time." or something similar.

Blah blah blah………………………………

Oh by the way:
The sender should manually type the patient name in to the subject line before sending the fax out, so if transmission fails, you'll have the patients name in the fax status description area.
