Bingham Healthcare: The region’s leader in healthcare innovation

Growing a team of world-class specialists and medical services to expand healthcare options throughout Eastern Idaho.

Nearly 150 years ago, W.W. Mayo opened a small hospital in rural, Rochester, Minnesota. Over the years, the Mayo Clinic has grown to become one of the most renowned medical facilities in the world. Amazed at its success, despite a rural setting, the medical community has dubbed it, “The Miracle in the Cornfield.”

Bingham Healthcare has not yet grown into what the Mayo Clinic is today, but about 10 years ago we adopted a mantra that has focused our ambition for world-class healthcare here in rural, Bingham County: “If world-class healthcare can grow from a cornfield in rural Minnesota, then why not a potato field in rural Idaho?”

This mantra has driven us to ensure that in everything we venture to do, we do so to the highest standards possible, and to do so with compassion and kindness.

We are extremely proud of the growth and advancements that Bingham Healthcare has achieved this past decade.

Established as Bingham Memorial Hospital in 1950, it later became a state-of-the art, 501(c)3 non-profit critical access hospital located in Blackfoot, Idaho.

Today, the 25-bed hospital now operates as part of Bingham Healthcare. At our core, we are a rural healthcare provider, solving complex healthcare delivery problems, by innovating the delivery model in rural Idaho.

Despite our growth for 75 years, our mission is to: advance our community’s health, we provide high-quality care with compassion and exceptional service, and, with a vision to: be the region’s most trusted resource for improving quality of life.

Our mission drives us to deliver incredible healthcare, through compassionate men and woman who put patients before profits. Within the last decade, we have established the region’s largest network of doctors, surgeons, and specialists, which also includes a growing number of hospitals, surgery centers, and physician offices—not just in Blackfoot, but also in Ammon, Idaho Falls, Pocatello, and Shelley, ID.

Bingham Healthcare is a forward-thinking healthcare network that employs more than 1,200 people throughout Eastern Idaho, with a world-class medical team of over 165 credentialed specialists. Our excellent physicians, state-of-the-art facilities, and devoted teams allow us to deliver outstanding healthcare services.

We are a strong economic driver, providing benefits to all of the local communities. As a regional leader in physician and hospital synergy, our diverse network of physicians, nurses, and support staff work hard every day of the year to provide high-quality healthcare services in a caring and compassionate manner.
