Billings Clinic and Logan Health announced on Tuesday that the combined health system will now operate under the single name One Sky Health, a change intended to give the region’s more than 25 hospitals and clinics a unified identity.
According to KPAX, the merger that created the system was finalized in 2023, linking the two organizations into an independent, locally governed network that spans more than 150,000 square miles of Montana and northern Wyoming. CEO Clint Seger, MD, said the new name reflects the expansive sky shared by the people of the region and underscores the goal of “strong rural healthcare, strong rural community hospitals as well as strong inter‑connected tertiary hospitals.”
NBC Montana reported that the transition will be gradual, with signage and branding updates rolled out over the next two to three years. While the One Sky Health name will appear on facilities, historic local names will remain in places like Kalispell and Whitefish, where hospitals will be known as One Sky Health Kalispell Medical Center and One Sky Health North Valley Hospital.
Montana Right Now noted that the network includes more than 1,200 physicians and advanced practitioners covering over 85 medical and surgical specialties, the region’s first Level I Trauma Center, air‑ambulance services, complex‑care capabilities, and clinical training programs. The organization emphasized that the rebranding does not change the providers or leadership patients see today.
All three outlets highlighted the system’s commitment to remain independent, not‑for‑profit, and locally governed, with decision‑making rooted in community needs rather than outside directives. Board chair Craig Bartholomew said the new identity builds on the legacy of both organizations while keeping care close to home.
Patients can expect the name change to begin immediately, but most will continue receiving care from the same teams and facilities they know, with new signage appearing incrementally over the next two to three years.
What’s next: One Sky Health will start updating exterior and interior signage at its facilities this month, with a full rollout expected by 2026. Residents are encouraged to watch for the new branding on clinics, hospitals, and ambulances throughout the region.
