We have a responsibility to honor our founder and those that have gone before us; to love more, serve more, and do more for our neighbors and friends.
We provide healthcare from the heart for anyone that needs us and we seek to develop meaningful treatment relationships that focus on preventing and reversing the impact of diseases. We are committed to building the most incredible healthcare system that patients have ever seen; we will never give up, we will never lose hope because we know that together we can change the healthcare experience.
Heritage Health is governed by a board of directors, the majority of whom are active patients at our centers. This structure, combined with our non-profit status allows Heritage Health to be responsive first and foremost to the needs of our patients and not corporate shareholders. Our culture, pricing, hours of operation, services, locations, and strategic direction are set by people who rely on us for their healthcare needs.
This refreshing and unique structure is what sets us apart from the other profit focused healthcare organizations in our area. We truly are a community-owned and operated resource.
We are a Health Center Program grantee under 42 U.S.C. 254b, and a deemed Public Health Service employee under 42 U.S.C. 233(g)-(n).
Heritage Health has proudly served North Idaho since 1985 under the names of Lake City Health and Dirne Health Centers, Inc. Heritage Health is a private, non-profit 501(C)(3)charitable organization operating under the name of Dirne Health Centers, Inc.
