Dream DPC

Tools to Build Your Dream : www.dreamdpc.com Here is a quick episode on one of the few things that helps me reset my brain during the day. It's not more coffee and it's not meditation. It's exercise. Learning how to utilize exercise is key to helping you maintain alignment with your own principles and being able to keep your brain fresh and active throughout the day. Key Takeaways 1. Build an exercise regimen around the time you start to fade out. 2. Start out low and go slow until you find a good balance. 3. Try and alternate resistance training with cardiorespiratory fitness days. 4. Recognize that a lot of successful entrepreneurs build some type of fitness training into their daily calendar. 4. Be kind to yourself if you miss a day. Keep on building that dream!

My Awesome Webhost: Kajabi (Free 30 Day Trial) This episode of Dream DPC covers three key financial topics for direct primary care (DPC) practice owners: 401(k) plans, business deductions, and creating a charity to optimize finances and reduce tax liabilities. 1. Maximizing a 401(k) as a DPC Owner   • Unlike traditional employment, where the employer contributes to a 401(k), a DPC owner plays both roles—employee and employer—allowing for higher contributions.  • The IRS allows elective deferrals up to $23,000 in 2024 and $23,500 in 2025 (higher limits apply for those 50+ with additional catch-up contributions).  • Business owners can contribute up to 25% of compensation as employer contributions, bringing the total potential contribution to $69,000 in 2024.  • This strategy is beneficial once a DPC practice becomes financially stable, allowing the owner to catch up on retirement savings. 2. Common Tax Deductions for a DPC Practice   • Software & Subscriptions: EMR, QuickBooks, Zoom, Kajabi (website hosting), RingCentral (business phone)  • Phone & Internet: Both the device and the plan  • Travel & Mileage: Business-related driving  • Marketing & Advertising: Facebook ads, website maintenance  • AI Tools: AI-powered note-taking software  • Medical Supplies & Lab Fees: Payments to Quest Diagnostics, Amazon business purchases  • Insurance: Business insurance, malpractice insurance  • Education: Books, courses, and conferences  • Business Meals: Meeting-related expenses 3. Creating a Charity for Tax Benefits and Impact   • A charity (501(c)(3)) can be a powerful tool for reducing taxable income while supporting a cause.  • There are two main types:  • Private foundations: These are controlled by a family or small group and have less public scrutiny but more operating restrictions.  • Public charities: More transparent, often benefiting from more public donations.  • DPC owners can contribute up to 30% of their income to a charity, lowering their taxable income.  • The charity must distribute 5% of its assets annually to its mission (e.g., medical debt relief, healthcare access, jiu-jitsu promotion).  • Founders can pay themselves a salary from the charity, but IRS guidelines dictate reasonable compensation based on the organization’s size.
