LEWISTON — Mainers’ access to orthopedic care will increase with a new relationship between Central Maine Healthcare and Central Maine Orthopedics, a member of Spectrum Healthcare Partners, CMH announced Oct. 29.
The agreement reached last month increases capacity for Spectrum’s Central Maine Orthopedics practice in Auburn, whose providers already offer orthopedic care at Central Maine Medical Center and across the Central Maine Healthcare network. It also supports the ambulatory surgical center at the Auburn location. The comprehensive orthopedic partnership will better integrate existing capabilities, such as the ambulatory surgical center and CMH’s mobile MRI.
The Central Maine Orthopedics practice and ambulatory surgical center in Auburn has partnered with CMH’s new mobile MRI network to offer services to patients from Central Maine to the Midcoast area. The mobile MRI provides outpatient imaging services at CMH’s Topsham Care Center and will soon expand to Auburn at CMO’s Minot Avenue location. It also serves Bridgton and Rumford Hospitals on a rotating schedule.
