ChiroTouch, Bluefin Payment Systems partner for integrated payments

April 2, 2014 — ChiroTouch, a provider of fully-certified, compliant practice management software for the chiropractic industry, and financial technology provider Bluefin Payment Systems have partnered to offer a fully integrated payment technology and security solution to ChiroTouch clients.

ChiroTouch clients have access to Bluefin’s secure, integrated payment processing platform which includes tokenization and transparent redirect security features, and in the near-term ChiroTouch will implement Bluefin’s PayConex point-to-point encryption (P2PE) solution as well.

“We recognize the value of providing an integrated payment option within our software, and we chose to partner with Bluefin because of their commitment to payment security and innovation,” said Robert Moberg, president of ChiroTouch. “Dozens of companies offer solutions for credit card processing. We wanted a partner that recognizes the value of security first because our clients deal with sensitive patient information every day. Enhancements like PayConex P2PE that encrypt and isolate cardholder data from the POS system demonstrate ChiroTouch’s commitment to provide the industry’s most innovative software to our clients.”

Bluefin specializes in integrated cloud-based payment and security solutions for independent software vendors (ISVs) and SaaS providers. Bluefin recently introduced the first and, to date the only, PCI-validated solution for P2PE in the U.S. PayConex P2PE encrypts credit and debit card data in a secure point of entry device before it is transmitted into a merchant’s system, ensuring that clear-text cardholder data does not reach the merchant’s POS systems and networks where it could be exposed to malware.

Fully-certified chiropractic software designed from the ground up to maximize efficiencies for virtually every process, including patient self check-in, scheduling, SOAP notes, billing, interoffice communication and more, ChiroTouch has developed its HIPAA-compliant system to drastically reduce the time it takes to perform tasks that chiropractors are already doing. That gives chiropractors more time to see more patients — resulting in increased referrals, improved efficiencies, and a direct, measurable impact on practice profitability.

“ChiroTouch is an excellent partner for Bluefin because they recognize the need to not only provide a robust payment platform but to implement seamless yet effective security features within their solution,” said John M. Perry, CEO of Bluefin. “Clients that take advantage of our tokenization and PCI Council validated point-to-point encryption offerings experience the immediate benefits of a secure payment experience without having to fundamentally change how they process payments today. It is all available within the ChiroTouch application.”
