Life and Health Care Barriers for Indigenous People in Montana

This really interesting article talks about how many Native American people in Montana struggle to get the care they need. It focuses on people who live in rural and tribal areas where hospitals and doctors are far away and hard to reach. The story explains that problems like long travel distances, lack of money and not enough medical services make it harder for these communities to stay healthy. It also shows how these challenges can lead to worse health outcomes and shorter life expectancy for Indigenous people in Montana, and why this is an ongoing issue that needs more attention.
