Today's Kōchibashi Station opened on 27 March 2001 — but it is the second stop of that name. The original Kōchibashi opened on 16 February 1928 when Tosa Electric Railway built the Ekimae Line between Harimaya-bashi and Kōchi-eki; it was moved south and renamed Nijūdaimachi-dōri on 1 April 1944, then abolished on 18 April 1960. The Kōchibashi road bridge over the Enokuchi River was rebuilt on 29 November 1980, and the present tram stop arrived twenty years later, sometimes described as the revival of the old Nijūdaimachi-dōri stop. The stop passed to Tosaden Kōtsū on 1 October 2014 with the operator merger. Since 1 October 2017 the stop has carried the naming-rights suffix "Iryōhōjin Nonamikai Kōchi-byōin-mae" — the first naming-rights deal on any railway or tramway in Kōchi Prefecture.

The Kōchibashi naming-rights deal in October 2017 was the first time any railway or tramway operator in Kōchi Prefecture sold a station name — the suffix "Iryōhōjin Nonamikai Kōchi-byōin-mae" was attached for a three-year term.
