Overview

Mission

To provide quality health care and health-related services directed toward continually improving the health and wellbeing of the patients and communities we serve. We will provide compassionate, humanistic, accessible, personal, professional, efficient, cost-effective and quality services.

What it reported doing in 2020

Acute and specialty health care services were provided to residents of the Mid-Coast Maine area. Charity care was provided to those patients who did not have the ability to pay for medical services. Effective December 31, 2020 the Hospital legally dissolved and transferred all its assets and activities to MaineHealth, a 501(c)(3) healthcare organization.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 99% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence and expenses are high relative to revenue.
