The MaineHealth Corporate Strategic Planning Department prepares our health system for the future and advances our vision of working together so our communities are the healthiest in America. The Planning team supports health system leadership, as well as regional leadership and local hospitals to advance their care delivery strategies to ensure we are meeting the needs of the communities we serve. Planning work ranges from supporting regional clinical planning efforts (i.e., what services to have and where), to system-wide service line planning (i.e., orthopedics, cardiovascular, critical care, etc.), to facilities planning, to staying on top of latest trends and intelligence and using data to inform executive decision making.
