Robert "Bob" Hoehl (December 13, 1941 – November 7, 2010) was a co-founder of the software company IDX Systems and a Vermont philanthropist.

Born in Brooklyn, NY, Hoehl earned a basketball scholarship to Saint Michael's College in Colchester, Vermont, where he graduated in 1963 with a degree in mathematics. After working at IBM as a computer programmer, he founded Burlington Data Processing (BDP) in 1969 with Richard Tarrant.
