Curve Dental, developer of Web-based dental software, is quickly becoming command central in the dental office by seamlessly integrating a growing range of practice-management tasks into its software platform. Recent expansions come via arrangements with Intuit’s DemandForce marketing/communications services and Bluefin Payment Systems’ PayConex all-in-one payment-processing services.
The two-way integration between Curve Dental’s management software and Intuit’s DemandForce marketing and communication service enables DemandForce users to access appointment information in Curve Dental software to send automated appointment reminders to patients via email or text messages — and also help practices build their online reputation.
The two-way data integration is significant for Curve Dental customers because it enables DemandForce and Curve systems to sync data in real time. That means that when a patient confirms an appointment through DemandForce, the Curve management system will automatically update, — leaving the practice to focus more on patient satisfaction.
“We are pleased to offer our customers a way to easily and seamlessly link their practice information with DemandForce,” said Ian Zipursky, president and chief operating officer of Curve Dental. “DemandForce offers a wide array of services that can help our customers avoid appointment cancellations and no-shows and thereby increase practice productivity. Moreover, DemandForce’s practice-marketing features can assist our customers in successfully competing on Google, social media and other popular sites.”
All-in-one payment solution
The partnership between Bluefin Payment Systems and Curve Dental creates an integrated, all-in-one payment solution within the Curve Dental software interface. Through the partnership with Bluefin, Curve Dental clients can process debit card, credit card and ACH payments right within the software interface. They can also easily set up schedules for recurring billing, choose to tokenize transactions for extra security, offer clients enhanced security features (such as point-to-point encryption) and provide online payment capabilities via a patient portal hosted by Curve Dental.
“Curve Dental is on the cutting-edge of innovation in dental software and is an ideal partner for Bluefin,” said Bluefin CEO John Perry. “We seek to partner with companies that offer differentiated products that allow customers to accomplish tasks in less time and with more efficiency.”
In addition to having access to a highly secure integrated payment product, Curve Dental clients will also benefit from a transparent and competitive pricing structure and one-on-one support from Bluefin and Curve Dental team members.
