Our History

Community Hospital of Anaconda (CHA) has been serving the healthcare needs of Anaconda-Deer Lodge County (ADLC) since 1889. The hospital is a privately owned, non-profit, twenty-five bed critical access facility built in 1981. CHA offers a full continuum of care including inpatient/outpatient hospital services, physical, occupational and speech therapy, advanced imaging, oncology/hematology, urology, neurosurgery, general surgery, orthopedics, rheumatology, endocrinology, obstetrics, family medicine, long-term care, and Hospice/Home Health services.

In addition, CHA offers a full range of visiting specialists, alleviating the need for members of our community to travel outside Anaconda for specialized services. Located in Southwest Montana, CHA has a medical staff of over 60 physicians and 400 employees that support the healthcare needs of our region.

Our Community

A former industrial center with a rich history and heritage, Anaconda is more recently renowned as a recreation community in Southwest Montana. The Continental Divide passes within a few miles of the city limits and Rocky Mountain peaks reach 10,379 feet. Anaconda offers an extraordinary summer or winter vacation opportunity as well as a great place to live and work.

Message from the CEO

“We appreciate the opportunity to be your partner in the community and look forward to serving the healthcare needs of this area for generations to come.”
