Hint Summit 2019

Why You Should Attend

Hint Summit brings together Direct Care enthusiasts, pioneers, and innovators to share ideas, build meaningful new relationships, and celebrate the impact of DPC—all with the goal of growing the Direct Care movement and making it the new standard in US healthcare.

Come to this year's Hint Summit to learn how leading Direct Care organizations are demonstrating their impact on patients, communities, and employers. You'll learn the latest strategies for successfully growing a Direct Care practice with forward-thinking employers, and you'll be the first to learn about game-changing new tech that promises to help practices reach critical mass faster. Last but not least, we know how to throw a party, so bring your dancing shoes.

Hint Summit 2019

Demonstrating Impact

Direct Care is spreading quickly across the country as healthcare communities are experiencing the power and potential of non-insurance, incentive-aligned, price transparent, patient focused and physician driven healthcare innovation.

This year’s Hint Summit theme Demonstrating Impact will focus on sharing and celebrating the broad based impact Direct Care is having on stakeholders across the healthcare continuum - physicians, staff, patients, employers, advisors, civic leaders, enabling technologies - to raise the bar and inspire and catalyze growth, expansion and success.
