Bear Paw Development Corporation is a private non-profit organization created for the purpose of administering programs to help improve regional economic conditions in Hill, Blaine, Liberty, Chouteau and Phillips Counties and the Fort Belknap and Rocky Boy's Indian Reservations.

A new residency program http://fmrwm.umt.edu/ is looking to change rural community medical facilities one doctor at a time. It’s been a long time coming, or rather, NEEDED to boost Montana’s rural medical community.

Professionals in the industry say ranking 50th in the country for medical graduates isn’t just a number, it’s a huge problem.

"It’s an immense step for the state, but crucial to try and have more availability for physicians here," said Dr. Ned Vasquez, FMRWM Program Director.
