About the Company

Monument Health

Integrated non-profit health system with hospitals

Monument Health is a non-profit, integrated healthcare system serving Western South Dakota and Eastern Wyoming. It operates a network of hospitals, specialty clinics, and primary care practices that work together to deliver coordinated care across medical disciplines such as orthopedics, dermatology, hospital medicine, and hospice care. Services are accessed through the clinician network, with care coordinated across providers to improve quality and patient outcomes while managing costs. Revenue comes from patient services, and any surplus is reinvested into facilities, technology, and patient care rather than distributed to shareholders. Its hospital-and-clinic network is governed by a community-based Board of Directors, emphasizing rural, community-focused health services. The goal is to make healthcare more accessible and effective for the communities it serves, balancing high-quality care with responsible cost management.
