Maine Anesthesia Services supports surgical facilities across Maine by coordinating anesthesia coverage through experienced, independently licensed anesthesia professionals. Our focus is on supporting safe, patient-centered perioperative care in the outpatient setting and on building strong working relationships with our facility partners. We follow developments in medical technology and healthcare policy so that the coverage we help arrange remains current and responsive to the needs of Maine patients and providers.
Maine Anesthesia Services was founded on nearly two decades of experience in anesthesia practice and perioperative management. Our mission is to support surgical facilities across Maine by coordinating anesthesia coverage through independently licensed anesthesia professionals. We recognize the trust patients place in their care teams, and we support approaches that help make the perioperative experience smoother, such as:
Maine Anesthesia Services coordinates outpatient anesthesia coverage for surgical facilities across Maine. For our client facilities, we work to support efficiency, continuity of care, and existing clinical workflows. Our management services include clinician scheduling, access to affiliated revenue cycle services, supply chain management, and responsive communication.
The clinicians we coordinate are independently licensed, experienced, and well-versed in the outpatient setting. We value professional rapport, and where scheduling allows, we work to offer facilities continuity in their anesthesia coverage. The size of our group also means we can be responsive to client feedback, which we welcome on an ongoing basis.
Billing for anesthesia services is handled through affiliated revenue cycle services, with the goal of making the process clear and straightforward for patients. Patients with billing questions can reach a billing representative through several channels. Protected health information is handled in accordance with applicable privacy and security requirements, including HIPAA.
Anesthesia equipment, supplies, and medications are coordinated with each facility for the office-based setting. Our supply management process is informed by recognized professional guidelines and is designed to help facilities keep necessary items stocked. We conduct periodic site visits to assist with equipment upkeep and inventory review.
At Maine Anesthesia Services, we work to fit smoothly within each facility's surgical workflow. We keep open lines of communication with our client facilities regarding scheduling, credentialing coordination, feedback, and related administrative needs. Our aim is to help make the perioperative process run smoothly for facilities and the patients they serve.
