It was established in 1944 as the LDS Roosevelt Hospital, but when The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints divested itself from its health care services in 1975, Duchesne County assumed ownership of the facility and it became known as Duchesne County Hospital. In 1993, the name changed to the current Uintah Basin Medical Center.
