Automated Service Helps Practitioners Reduce Time Backing Up Data and Reduce Concern about the Security of Patient Information
  
MELVILLE, N.Y. – February 23, 2017 – Henry Schein Practice Solutions Inc., the U.S. practice solutions business of Henry Schein, Inc., today announced the release of a TechCentral Hybrid Backup Service at the Chicago Dental Society's Midwinter Meeting. The new TechCentral service helps dentists efficiently store practice and patient data both onsite and in the cloud, providing dentists peace of mind about their storage.

As part of TechCentral, Henry Schein's dental office technology support and services division, its Hybrid Backup Service provides onsite backup technology and connections to its cloud server. The TechCentral remote support services team helps dental practices manage data backup and recovery if data is ever lost. This will allow dentists and office managers in both solo and multi-site practices to spend less time backing up data, so they can focus on delivering quality patient care. The Hybrid Backup Service also uses Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) 256-bit encryption to help protect customers' data.

"Practitioners using manual, complex and time-consuming processes to back up their patient data can rely on Henry Schein TechCentral to provide quality customer service so they can operate a more efficient and productive practice," said Kevin Bunker, President of North America Dental Practice Solutions, Henry Schein. "By co-managing the backup process and monitoring users' daily backup, Henry Schein's TechCentral team can proactively resolve issues or errors that are detected so that practitioners can continue to provide quality patient care."

In addition, TechCentral will assist customers in confirming that the backup is completed successfully by sending notifications and reports via email, keeping customers abreast of activity on their account.
