About Us

The medical group is responsible for all medical and dental care for over 10,000 beneficiaries throughout north-central Montana.

The group's mission is to maximize Team Malmstrom's health, fitness and readiness through comprehensive managed health care systems emphasizing health promotion and preventive medicine. The more than 200-member (active-duty, civilian and contract employees) team provides quality care in accordance with Air Staff policies and meets stringent quality standards developed by the American Academy of Ambulatory Health Care.

In addition to providing peacetime healthcare, the medical group regularly trains to provide rapid, responsive support for contingencies, both natural and man-made. Regular training, periodic readiness exercises and inspections, and as-needed deployments in support of overseas operations ensure that the 341st Medical Group is always able to support the mission.
