  • Battle of the Support Stack

    Last year, 214 DPC physicians settled the EHR debate. This year, we're going after everything else.The Battle of the Support Stack is My DPC Story's second annual community vote — focused on the non-EHR tools that keep DPC practices running. Patient communication, billing, scheduling, AI, labs, and more. Ten categories. One community verdict. Zero paid rankings.Results will be announced live at DPC Summit in July 2026 and published in the Summer 2026 issue of The Toolkit.Vote in as many or as few categories as apply to your practice. It doesn't take more than 5 minutes.
