About this directory and the Maine pediatrics market
The training years were structured. The first contract is not.
Then graduation approaches and the algorithm stops. A recruiter calls. The contract has a productivity formula you cannot solve for, a non-compete you cannot evaluate, and a tail-coverage clause nobody explained.
The senior residents signed their first contracts without reading every clause. Not because they did not care, but because nobody had handed them a map of what else existed. So they took the first offer. This directory exists so you do not have to.
What other resources point to in Maine
You're looking at 53 physician-owned pediatrics practices in Maine. I sourced all of them from the NPPES NPI Registry and filtered out everything that doesn't meet the standard of independent physician ownership. Hospital systems, academic centers, staffing agencies, and corporate-acquired practices are not on this list. Each entry includes the practice address, phone, website, and NPI number. The coverage spans 22 cities statewide.
If you're evaluating a move to private practice in Maine, this is a starting point you won't find on a job board. Most boards mix employed positions with ownership opportunities, and they almost never tell you who actually owns the practice. Recruiters aren't much better. This page filters for physician ownership specifically, so you can focus on practices where clinical autonomy isn't just a talking point in an interview. It's built into the ownership structure.

Frequently asked questions about pediatrics in Maine
How many Pediatrics private practices are in Maine?
There are 53 physician-owned pediatrics 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.
PSLF and Loan Forgiveness When Leaving Hospital Employment in Maine
Maine's physician-owned pediatrics practices include InterMed - Pediatrics (Portland), Pediatric Associates of Lewiston (Lewiston, founded 1989), and Personalized Pediatrics of Maine (Portland).
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.
Does joining a private pediatrics practice in Maine affect PSLF eligibility?
Yes. PSLF requires working full-time at a qualifying 501(c)(3) or government employer. Most physician-owned private pediatrics practices are for-profit entities and do not qualify. Payments made while in private practice do not count toward PSLF forgiveness. If you have made 5+ years of qualifying PSLF payments, model carefully whether the income difference of private practice outweighs the forgiveness you would forfeit. The math depends heavily on your remaining debt and years to forgiveness.

Key Terms in Physician Contracts
Tail Insurance (Extended Reporting Endorsement)
A malpractice coverage add-on that pays for claims filed after a claims-made policy ends, for incidents that occurred while the policy was active. Tail premiums typically run 1.5 to 2 times the annual malpractice premium and are paid as a one-time lump sum at departure. Occurrence-based policies do not require a tail.
RVU (Relative Value Unit)
A standardized measure of physician productivity used by Medicare and most commercial payers to determine reimbursement. Each CPT code carries a work RVU, practice expense RVU, and malpractice RVU. Many physician contracts tie compensation to RVU production thresholds, with bonuses above a defined baseline.
Compensation Formula
The contractual method used to calculate physician pay. Common models include guaranteed salary, eat-what-you-kill (collections-based), salary plus production bonus (RVU or collections above a threshold), and equal-share partnership distributions. The formula directly affects income stability, upside potential, and alignment with practice goals.
Partnership Buy-In
The purchase of an ownership stake in a physician practice entity, typically offered after an associate track of 2 to 5 years. The buy-in price is calculated using business valuation, a multiple of earnings, or a formula tied to practice receivables. True equity buy-ins include voting rights and profit distributions.
Without-Cause Termination
A contract clause that allows either party to end the employment agreement without stating a reason, typically with 60 to 120 days written notice. The notice period, post-termination obligations (non-compete activation, tail insurance responsibility), and severance terms are negotiable. Shorter notice periods favor the employer.
PSLF (Public Service Loan Forgiveness)
A federal program that forgives the remaining balance of federal Direct loans after 120 qualifying monthly payments under an income-driven repayment plan while working full-time at a qualifying non-profit or government employer. Physician-owned private practices are typically for-profit and do not qualify. Forgiveness is tax-free.
Income-Driven Repayment (IDR)
A category of federal student loan repayment plans (SAVE, PAYE, IBR, ICR) that cap monthly payments at a percentage of discretionary income. Required for PSLF eligibility. Remaining balances are forgiven after 20-25 years on IDR regardless of employer type, though forgiveness outside PSLF is currently taxable income.
