The PCI ASSURE® program, part of the EdgeShield® security bundle, is customized to meet the needs of your practice, simplifying the steps required to maintain compliance.The EdgeShield option eases compliance by:

  • Reducing the annual self-assessment questionnaire (SAQ) down to just 24 questions (about a 75% reduction in scope)
  • Eliminating the need for quarterly IP network vulnerability scans
  • Providing a end-to-end encrypted solution

The PCI ASSURE Program includes these critical tools:

Access to the PCI ASSURE Merchant Portal

Your practice will have 24/7 access to our web-based portal that steps you through the requirements and the necessary Self-Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ). You'll be guided through the entire process online through the use of expert assistance and real-life examples.

Security Breach Reimbursement

Included in the PCI ASSURE Program is a Breach Reimbursement Program that covers a merchant for up to $100,000 ($0 deductible) to pay for audits, fines or other expenses associated with a processing breach. Given the potential costs to a business who experiences a breach, this coverage is a valuable component of the PCIASSURE Program.

Quarterly IP Network Vulnerability Scans

While not required under the EdgeShield option, your business still has the option to utilize this feature. Vulnerability scans are designed to find problems in a practice's environment before they can be compromised. Easy-to-understand reports detail the results and instructions are provided to fix any identified issues.

Security Policy Builder

This online tool creates a set of custom security policies that are automatically generated based on the way you process payment cards, making it easy to comply with this PCI DSS requirement.

Customer Support

Many PCI assistance programs leave you on your own to navigate your way through an online system of questions and decisions. With PCI ASSURE, the PCI Service Team is available to you offering live assistance every step of the way. You're always just a phone call away from help. If you have questions please call (702) 483-2121.

About PCI Compliance

What is PCI Compliance?

PCI Compliance is when merchants, payment processors and payment application providers comply with all applicable Data Security Standards as published by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council.

Is PCI Compliance required?

Yes. If you are a merchant or service provider and accept credit cards you must validate PCI compliance at least annually. For practices using Platinum System EHR and Global Payments Integrated, this will consist of annually completing a Self-Administered Questionnaire (significantly reduced in scope).

Where can I get more information about PCI Compliance?

The website of the PCI Security Council is the most comprehensive source of information: https://www.pcisecuritystandards.org/index.shtml.
