New Operating Model
The Kootenai Health Board of Trustees unanimously voted to transition to a private 501(c)(3) not-for-profit model of operations on May 2, 2023. The incumbent board members of the Hospital District were named as the Board members of Kootenai Health, Inc. on May 2, 2023. The operations of the hospital will temporarily remain with the Hospital District until the assets, liabilities and operations fully transfer to Kootenai Health, Inc., on midnight, December 31, 2023. This conversion will allow Kootenai Health to operate more efficiently and effectively to better serve the health care needs of our patients and community.
