Billings, MT, October 18, 2026 —
Billings Clinic has stopped providing gender-affirming care services, leaving transgender patients in Billings who relied on the clinic to seek care from other providers.
Other, smaller clinics remain available, according to the information provided, but the change has created a significant gap for patients who depended on Billings Clinic for this specialized care. The number of affected patients and the range of services that have been discontinued were not provided.
The reason the clinic stopped offering the services was not provided. No date for the change, details about how patients were notified, or information about referrals or transition arrangements was included. It is also unclear whether the decision applies to all gender-affirming care services or to a particular set of services.
The available information does not identify the other clinics that remain, describe what care they provide, or say whether they can accommodate patients previously served by Billings Clinic. As a result, the extent to which those providers can address the gap is not clear.
For transgender patients in Billings who relied on the clinic, finding a new provider is now necessary, but the information provided does not specify what options are available to individual patients. Further details about the clinic’s decision, its timing and the services affected were not provided.
