BILLINGS — Intermountain Health is planning to cut 41 jobs statewide this summer by closing its Lewistown Clinic Family Medicine and "shifting the model of care" at four clinics in Bozeman and Billings.

Hospital leadership said in a statement to MTN News that the Lewistown clinic will close July 24, 2026, eliminating six jobs.

The changes at the Bozeman and Billings clinics will start in June and eliminate 35 more jobs, both in leadership and staff members.

Intermountain Health released the following information:

Intermountain Health is committed to providing the safest, high-quality care in the communities we serve. To maintain that commitment and strengthen long-term financial sustainability in an increasingly volatile healthcare industry, we made difficult decisions that will impact a small number of medical clinics and allow caregivers whose roles are impacted to apply for other open positions in the organization. Caregivers directly impacted by these changes have access to support and resources, including transition support, career assistance, severance (where applicable), and benefits guidance.

Utah-based Intermountain Health is one of Montana's largest healthcare groups, operating three hospitals statewide, including St. Vincent Regional Hospital in Billings.
