Consolidating patient engagement point solutions with one independently examined platform means fewer systems handling patient data, and fewer doors left unlocked.
DALLAS, TX, August 19, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ -- BridgeInteract, a healthcare technology company that unifies patient portal, intake, payments, scheduling, clinical and social-needs screening, and communication inside the electronic health record (EHR), today announced it has completed a SOC 2 Type 2 examination. The examination was conducted by an independent, licensed CPA firm and covered a recent reporting period, consistent with a Type 2 examination's focus on controls tested over time rather than at a single point.
A SOC 2 examination was developed by the American Institute of CPAs. It measures a service organization against the trust services criteria: security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy. BridgeInteract's report addresses the criteria most relevant to its platform.
The distinction between the two report types matters for the healthcare organizations Bridge serves. A Type 1 report reviews whether controls are designed properly on a single date. A Type 2 report tests whether those controls operated effectively across an entire reporting period. For a provider organization weighing a vendor, that difference is the difference between a snapshot and a track record.
"Our customers entrust us with sensitive information and we take this very seriously," said John Deutsch, CEO of BridgeInteract. "We built BridgeInteract to protect that information at every step. A Type 2 examination means an independent firm watched our controls work over months, not on one convenient day. That is the standard our customers deserve, and it is the standard we hold ourselves to."
The examination reflects how Bridge approaches security across its platform. BridgeInteract replaces multiple fragmented systems with a unified patient intake and payments platform built on discrete EHR integration, meaning patient information flows into structured chart fields rather than sitting in disconnected PDFs or flat files. Fewer systems handling patient data means fewer points of exposure for the organizations that rely on it.
That standard matters more, not less, as BridgeInteract's footprint grows. The platform now spans patient portal and mobile access, intake, appointment scheduling, insurance eligibility and payment processing, clinical and social-needs screening, and secure two-way messaging, all connected directly to the EHR. Consolidating that much of the patient journey into one platform is exactly why its security cannot be taken on faith, and why an independent, multi-month examination matters more here than it would for a single-purpose tool.
BridgeInteract is also compliant with the ONC Certification Criteria for Health IT and maintains a HIPAA-compliant environment, and meets the requirements of Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) for the organizations it serves there. The company's full SOC 2 report is available to prospective clients under NDA.
Security is not a one-time achievement at Bridge. Every capability added to the platform, from payments to screening to messaging, is built and tested against the same standard validated in this examination. Beyond this examination, Bridge also engages independent security firms throughout the year for additional third-party testing and auditing, an ongoing practice rather than a once-a-year event.
About BridgeInteract: BridgeInteract gives healthcare organizations one platform for patient intake, payments, scheduling, social drivers of health screening, and communication, integrated directly into the EHR. The result is a mobile-first digital front door that patients find easy to use and staff can manage without leaving their existing workflow. To learn more, visit https://www.bridgeinteract.io.
