The Hint platform has been designed so that it is easy to upload patient demographics from your existing systems, as well as bulk update patient data to reassign them to a location, provider, etc.

If updating existing patients' demographic data, download your patient list first. You will want to include patients' ID, first name, last name, and date of birth in your file to ensure the correct patients are updated and to avoid creating duplicates from your upload.

Uploading Patient Data

To import patient demographic data, navigate to your patient list and click 'Upload From CSV':

You can find our ready-to-go upload template here.

The following data can be imported by including the following column headers:

  • Import ID

  • ID (*Note: this is the Hint patient ID for existing patients. Be sure to include this when updating existing patients)
