A newsletter of health information from Mayo Regional Hospital * Annual 2002
 The new Ambulatory Services Unit (left) has been constructed at Mayo Regional Hospital during the second stage of the construction/renovation project. The multiyear construction/renovation project, which began in 2001, saw the opening of the two-story Resource Center in February and the new Emergency Department addition in May. The Resource Center houses Rehabilitation Services, the WorkWISE occupational health program and business offices on one floor, and administration, medical records, medical staff services and conference rooms on another level. The Emergency Department more than doubled space available previously and brought marked improvement to the confidentiality, privacy and efficiency of patient care. Renovations associated with Phase I were completed in order to provide enlarged and improved space for Obstetrics, Radiology, Cardiopulmonary Services and Patient Registration. Phase II of Mayo's expansion was originally scheduled for spring of 2003, but the Hospital Administrative District 4 Board of Directors decided to move that timetable ahead in order to take advantage of the momentum created by Phase I and cost savings associated with an accelerated schedule. Assisted by a $250,000 donation from the Stephen and Tabitha King Foundation to the hospital's Capital Campaign, construction started in August on another addition to the hospital's west end for an Ambulatory Services Unit. The ASU will include more space for Mayo's growing Surgical Services Department, and a new location for the Imaging Center for Women. Phase II construction is scheduled for completion in September, 2003. Expansion of Mayo's facilities was mirrored by growth in the hospital's physician base. Mayo opened two new physician practices in 2002, Corinna Family Practice in February and Mayo Pediatrics in March, bringing to nine the total of affiliated offices located in Corinna, Dexter, Dover-Foxcroft, Guilford and Milo. Three new doctors joined Mayo's active medical staff during the year: pediatrician John Pearsall at Mayo Pediatrics, family practice physician Richard "Chip" Wallingford III at Dover-Foxcroft Family Medicine and Corinna Family Practice, and internist Scott McLaughlin at Guilford Medical Associates. Mayo enjoyed another strong year financially, finishing 2002 with a consolidated net income of $1,078,425. Although inpatient admissions were 3.1% less than last year and the average daily census declined slightly to 14.3 patients, growth continued to be experienced in outpatient services, which accounted for 62% of revenue.  HAD 4 Board Leadership (left to right): Bob Pomeroy, treasurer; Dodie Curtis, Vice President; Gregory Bowler, President; Judy Raymond, Secretary. Utilization of hospital services rose strongly in such areas as births, which increased 21% to 192, and surgery, which had 2,209 cases for an 8.5% increase. Other areas with significant growth included the Emergency Department, radiology, laboratory and EMS ambulance. New services offered during 2002 included the opening of a monthly endocrinology clinic -- the 13th outpatient specialty clinic available at Mayo. Endocrinologist Cheryl Dabon, M.D. sees patients for diabetes, metabolic and nutritional disorders and related conditions. Mayo added the FastHealth interactive healthcare information service to its lineup of community health programs.

Hospital Administrative District 4, d/b/a Mayo Regional Hospital, and its subsidiary, Mayo Regional Administrative Services Corporation Consolidated Statements of Operations - Unrestricted Funds
 As the pie chart to the left shows, Medicaid was billed for 12.8% and Medicare accounted for 50.3% of the services provided by the hospital last year. Payment is less than cast for most of those services. The unreimbursed cost of providing this care causes other payers to be charged more to make up for these governmental payment shortfalls. Commercial insurances were billed for 32.2%, and 4.7% of gross revenues were billed to people who had no health insurance. |
FY 2002 Mayo Regional Hospital and its subsidiary, Mayo Regional Administrative Services Corporation, had a consolidated gain of $1,078,425 for fiscal year 2002, a continuation of the strong financial performance seen over the past three years. Increased use of hospital services was a key factor, as net patient service revenues grew. Mayo provided $461,616 in charity care, in addition to making provisions for covering $1,262,640 in bad debt. Mayo’s consolidated operating margin was 3.74 percent, keeping Mayo ahead of most other small hospitals in Maine. Key statistics Admissions: 1,630 |
