William Bee Ririe Critical Access Hospital continually works to meet the healthcare needs of our community.

Our Focus is Long Term

Because William Bee Ririe Critical Access Hospital strives to maximize the resources available in our community. We are continually making every effort to find new ways to keep people healthy and ways to return them to health more quickly after injury or illness. We do this by focusing on prevention and treatment of patients at the appropriate and most cost effective level of care.

Business Objectives Support Community Benefit

William Bee Ririe Critical Access Hospital and Rural Health Clinic both have one overriding purpose - to make a genuine difference in the many lives we touch by optimizing our patients' healthcare experience. We set a variety of business objectives to meet that purpose. These objectives fall into two broad categories: finding better ways to work and creating better value for our patients, employees, and the community.

What is Community Benefit?

Community benefit is a term that describes the services provided to the community for benefit of the community. They focus on identified community needs and must meet one of the following:

Generate a low or negative margin.

Respond to the needs of special populations, such as persons living in poverty.

Supply services or programs that would likely be discontinued or would need to be provided by a government provider if the decision was made on a purely financial basis.

Respond to public health needs.
