Independent Anesthesiology Groups in Maine

18 independent anesthesiology practices across Maine, cross-referenced against NPPES, state medical boards, and each practice's own website. Negotiate from leverage instead of from gratitude.

From your first MCAT prep book to your last in-training exam, the next step was always pre-written. Someone handed you the syllabus. You showed up. You did the work.

Most anesthesiology physicians sign their first contract without knowing how many other groups exist within driving distance. This is the single largest source of leverage you give away in your career, and you give it away because nobody told you the information was out there. The Real Contract course walks you through every clause that matters.

About this directory and the Maine anesthesiology market

For 15 years you had a map. Then the map ran out.

Then training ends and the page goes blank. The first contract lands in your inbox with terms you have never seen, written by people who do this for a living against someone who has done it exactly never.

Before you compare salary numbers, see how many physician-owned groups actually exist in your specialty and state. Then negotiate from leverage instead of from gratitude.

What other resources point to in Maine

Here's what this page is: 18 anesthesiology practices in Maine that are physician-owned. Not hospital jobs. Not corporate medical groups. Not locum postings. Every listing was pulled from the federal NPPES database and verified for active NPI status. I've supplemented each one with contact info, websites, and Google Maps links from DataForSEO.

I made this because the information doesn't exist in one place anywhere else.

Frequently asked questions about anesthesiology in Maine

How many Anesthesiology private practices are in Maine?

There are 16 physician-owned anesthesiology private practices in Maine, verified against the NPPES NPI Registry. All are independently operated. Hospital-employed, government, corporate, and academic positions are excluded.

What does physician-owned mean?

A physician-owned practice is one where licensed physicians hold controlling ownership of the business entity. This is distinct from hospital employment, corporate medical groups, or private equity-backed practices where non-physician entities control the business.

What does the Corporate-Acquired or MSO-Affiliated flag mean?

The Corporate-Acquired flag means the practice was historically physician-owned but has since been acquired by a corporate entity such as Optum. The MSO-Affiliated flag means the practice uses a Management Services Organization for billing and administration while physicians retain practice-level ownership.

CRNA Supervision Ratios in Maine Anesthesia Practices

Maine's only physician-owned anesthesiology practice in this directory is Spectrum Healthcare Partners in Portland (65 physicians).

What is an NPPES-verified practice?

NPPES is the National Plan and Provider Enumeration System, a federal database maintained by CMS. Every practice in this directory has an active NPI record in NPPES, confirming it is a registered U.S. medical practice.

How do CRNA supervision ratios affect anesthesiologist income in private practice in Maine?

Under Medicare medical direction rules, a physician anesthesiologist can direct up to 4 CRNAs simultaneously and bill at 50% of the physician fee schedule for each case. A 1:4 ratio maximizes case volume per physician but requires strict medical direction documentation. Some groups use a 1:2 ratio for heavier physician oversight with lower volume. The ratio also affects call coverage, ask whether CRNAs take independent overnight call or always require physician backup.

Key Terms in Physician Contracts

Restrictive Covenant
Any contractual clause that limits a physician's professional activities after leaving an employer. Non-compete clauses are the most common restrictive covenant, but the category also includes non-solicitation clauses (prohibiting contact with former patients or staff) and non-disparagement clauses.
Fair Market Value
The price at which a willing buyer and willing seller would agree to transact, with both parties having reasonable knowledge of the relevant facts. Physician compensation must meet fair market value to comply with federal anti-kickback and Stark Law requirements. Independent valuations are used for buy-in pricing, compensation benchmarking, and practice sales.
Collections-Based Compensation
A pay model in which a physician's income is tied directly to the revenue collected from their patient encounters. The physician typically receives a percentage of collections (40 to 55 percent is common) after overhead. This model rewards high-volume, high-acuity work but creates income variability.
Malpractice Insurance
Professional liability coverage that protects physicians against claims of medical negligence. Two main types exist: claims-made (covers claims only if both the incident and filing occur during the active policy) and occurrence-based (covers any incident during the policy period, regardless of when the claim is filed). Premium costs vary dramatically by specialty and state.
Ancillary Revenue
Income generated by a medical practice from services beyond physician office visits. Common sources include in-office imaging, laboratory testing, physical therapy, infusion services, and dispensing. Ancillary revenue can account for 20 to 40 percent of total practice revenue in procedure-heavy specialties.
Medical Direction
A Medicare billing model in which a physician anesthesiologist supervises up to 4 CRNAs simultaneously, billing at 50% of the physician fee schedule for each case. Requires the physician to perform specific tasks (pre-anesthesia eval, induction, emergence, etc.) for each case. Distinct from physician personally performed cases (billed at 100%).
CRNA (Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist)
An advanced practice nurse trained in anesthesia administration. CRNAs may practice independently or under physician supervision depending on state law. In Maine, the level of required physician oversight varies. Independent CRNA practice states have opted out of the Medicare physician supervision requirement.
