Bluefin Extends Secure Patient Payments Across the Expanding Epic Ecosystem With Support for Epic Wisdom

Bluefin and PAX help healthcare organizations unify payment security across medical, dental, pharmacy, and patient engagement environments

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Bluefin, the global leader in payment and data security infrastructure for integrated and orchestrated commerce, today announced expanded support for Epic Wisdom through its Epic-certified PayConex™ integration and ongoing collaboration with PAX Technology, enabling healthcare organizations to extend secure, integrated patient payment experiences into dental care environments.

As healthcare organizations increasingly unify medical, dental, pharmacy, specialty care, and patient engagement workflows within Epic, the need for a consistent payment security strategy across the entire patient journey continues to grow. Through PayConex, Bluefin enables organizations using Epic Wisdom to securely accept and process patient payments while leveraging the same payment infrastructure already deployed across MyChart, Welcome Kiosk, Willow Ambulatory, Hyperspace, call centers, and point-of-service payment environments.

By combining PayConex with Bluefin's PCI-validated Point-to-Point Encryption (P2PE), tokenization, and extensive portfolio of secure payment devices, healthcare organizations can protect sensitive payment data from the moment it is captured while reducing PCI scope and simplifying compliance management.

“Healthcare organizations are increasingly focused on creating unified patient experiences that extend beyond traditional care settings,” said Ruston Miles, Founder and Chief Strategy Officer at Bluefin. “As Epic customers expand their use of integrated platforms like Epic Wisdom, they need a payment security strategy that extends across the entire ecosystem. Bluefin helps organizations protect sensitive payment data wherever it enters the environment while maintaining a consistent patient and staff experience across medical, dental, pharmacy, billing, and digital channels.”

As part of its Epic Wisdom support, Bluefin also offers compatibility with a broad range of PCI-validated payment devices, including PAX’s A-Series smart terminals. Designed for modern healthcare environments, PAX devices support front-desk payment acceptance, operatories, patient check-in stations, kiosks, mobile workflows, and centralized billing operations.

“PAX is committed to helping healthcare organizations modernize patient payment experiences while maintaining the highest levels of security and flexibility,” said Clint Jones, Chief Commercial Officer at PAX Technology. “Together with Bluefin, we're enabling healthcare providers to deploy secure payment acceptance across a wide variety of care environments while supporting the connected experiences that patients increasingly expect.”

The combined solution helps healthcare organizations reduce payment complexity, strengthen payment security, simplify compliance efforts, and deliver a more seamless financial experience across the expanding Epic ecosystem.
