Bluefin Payment Systems, Curve Dental and The Dentist Group Partner for New Case Study

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) November 08, 2016

Bluefin Payment Systems, the leading provider of PCI-validated Point-to-Point Encryption (P2PE) stand-alone and integrated solutions for retail, healthcare, and education, today announced the release of a case study focused on The Dentist Group of San Francisco and their implementation of Bluefin software partner Curve Dental's practice management system, backed by Bluefin's integrated payment processing with P2PE.

The Dentist Group, founded by Dr. Josh Berd, DDS, provides technologically advanced dental services to the San Francisco community. The case study examines Dr. Berd's decision to adopt Curve Hero, Curve Dental's cloud-based dental software platform for storing patient records, digital x-rays, and accounts – and specifically designed for managing a dental practice from anywhere – along with Bluefin's payment processing and PCI-validated P2PE solution that is integrated into Curve Hero.

Bluefin's PCI-validated P2PE solution encrypts cardholder data at the point of card entry and prevents clear-text data from being present in the network or software platform, where it could be accessible in the event of a data breach.

"Security is always at the forefront of everything done in dentistry," stated Dr. Berd. "We have HIPPA regulations to consider, a lot of personal and health data that we store on our patients, as well as patient billing information on file so security is one of the things we stay on top of and one of the things most vital to running a successful practice. The Curve Dental and Bluefin solution has allowed us to create efficiencies in our practice that not only eliminate manual payment entry, but also secure payment information and reduce PCI scope."

This case study details the benefits of Curve Hero's cloud-based capabilities, which allow Dr. Berd the flexibility and convenience to run his business, review reports, adjust patient records and manage billing and collections both in-office and remotely. Additionally, Curve Dental's software and Bluefin's integrated payment option has helped Dr. Berd turn his six operatory rooms into their own fully functional office. "The computer serves as our merchant servicing tool as well as our cash register. We can send our patient's claims to their insurance company right there from the operatory as well," said Dr. Berd.

"Dr. Berd is both a talented clinician and a driven business owner. His practice is ideally located among some of the biggest tech giants in the world, whose employees look for technology to simplify everyday tasks, like going to the dentist," said Andy Jensen, VP of Marketing, Curve Dental. "To meet their expectations, Dr. Berd has been incredibly successful in wrapping Curve Dental and Bluefin around his unique work style and brand. Obviously his patients have responded favorably and his practice is booming. We're honored to be a part of another success story."

Bluefin, as well as the PCI Security Standards Council (SSC), have also released several additional case studies on the Bluefin PCI-validated P2PE solution featuring the University of California San Diego Extension, Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, and The Hillman Group. These, and The Dentist Group/Curve Dental Case Study, are available for download on the Bluefin website.
