Online Group Learning
Each week, you'll dive into a new "module" with accompanying handouts. This typically requires about 1-2 hours of your time to watch, take notes, and another 2-3 hours to complete homework assignments.
After three weeks of lessons, we have an implementation week to catch up or revisit any important topics that need extra attention. But building your dream practice involves more than just lessons; that's where our unique approach comes into play.

Coaching & Support
We recognize that clinicians like you often know what needs to be done but struggle with implementation. Our live Zoom coaching calls are designed to help you break through any self-sabotaging behaviors and obstacles.
These 60-minute sessions are recorded in case you can't attend them live, but we do ask that you don't miss more than 2 calls throughout our journey together. So, block your calendars, and we'll send you event invites to ensure you're always in the loop.

Why Hint?
We’re on a mission to make Direct Primary Care the new standard in healthcare. Everything we do is focused on helping you maximize the impact that the DPC model can have on your patients, your business, and your community. The nation’s fastest growing DPC practices choose Hint to power their businesses because of our 3 core competencies.
Operational Efficiency:
The Hint Core platform automates tedious workflows and talks to your EHR and other systems, giving you more time with patients.
DPC Know-How:
No one can beat the level of customer care and expertise that we provide to ensure that you are successful with DPC.
Membership Growth:
Hint has unique features and exclusive partnerships designed to help you fill your practice with more paying members.

Starting a private practice can be daunting, but it doesn’t have to be. Here at Hint, we believe that any clinician can start a successful direct primary care practice.
We’ve talked to hundreds of practitioners who’ve done it—there’s even a few of them on the Hint team—and we’ve gathered our learnings into a playbook to help clinicians launch their first DPC practice.

During the 12-week program, you’ll be learning with a group of peers who you can share ideas and collaborate with. You’ll also have access to a mentor throughout the program, so you can talk to someone who’s done it.
This bootcamp is absolutely worth the value alone for signing up with Hint."

How does DPC Launch Bootcamp work?
The DPC Launch Bootcamp is a 12-week, cohort-based learning program. Cohorts consist of small groups of 10-30 practitioners who go through the program together. Each week, we bring in an expert to walk through that week’s topic and answer your questions.
Every cohort also has a mentor to support them throughout the program. We pick mentors who have launched and run their own direct primary care practice, so you get to learn from someone who’s been in your shoes.
When does the next cohort begin?
The next DPC Launch Bootcamp starts on May 6, 2025 and meets every Tuesday at 11am PDT / 2pm EDT. Space is limited as we cap each cohort to 30 people. Register now to reserve your seat!
