Blackfoot & Bingham County Medical Supply Hub – I‑15 Corridor & Tribal Health Support
Blackfoot, Idaho sits midway between Idaho Falls and Pocatello along I‑15, supporting Bingham Memorial Hospital, Portneuf Health partners, Eastern Idaho Public Health, the Shoshone-Bannock Tribes, INL commuter routes, and Snake River agricultural communities. Our LAC Health counter inside Walmart #1905 at 565 Jensen Grove Drive keeps hospitals, tribal clinics, EMS agencies, correctional facilities, and agribusiness safety teams supplied without driving to Idaho Falls.
Within 20 minutes lie Bingham Memorial, Idaho State Hospital South, Shoshone-Bannock Tribal Health, Simplot’s Don Plant, and the I‑15/US 26 interchange feeding INL commuters. Whether supporting wildland fire crews near Fort Hall, prison medical staff, or RAGBRAI-style cycling events along Jensen Grove, “medical suppliers near me” in Bingham County now means same-day chain-of-custody support.
Blackfoot’s history spans potato processing, tribal trade routes, and the Idaho Potato Museum’s worldwide visitors. LAC Health honors that heritage with bilingual documentation, secure staging for correctional health, and logistics tuned to high-wind, winter-road, and wildfire conditions on the Snake River Plain.
