Planning for Intermountain Medical Center began in 1997 to solve two challenges: Intermountain Health's Cottonwood Hospital in Murray, UT, was aging and LDS Hospital, the company's flagship hospital at the time, was unable to expand. Between 1999 and 2002, Intermountain purchased 100 acres of land at 5300 South State Street in Murray, an ideal site because of its central location in the heart of the Salt Lake Valley, close to numerous local and national transportation options. After a 10-year planning and construction process, The Medical Center opened its doors on October 29, 2007.

Intermountain Medical Center contains five interconnected centers of excellence, including women’s/newborn care, heart/lung care, emergency/trauma care, outpatient care, and cancer care.
