Gould Hospital, Inland Hospital, Acadia Hospital, Sebasticook Valley Hospital, CA Dean Hospital, Mercy Hospital, Maine Coast Hospital, Blue Hill Hospital, and Mayo Hospital. EMHS d/b/a Northern Light Health (NLH) performed standardization of practices, strategic planning, and capital allocation functions. NLH board established and oversees the charity care policy of the 10 hospitals which is applied uniformly to all of the hospitals. NLH hospitals provided cumulative charity care of $10,300,762 (at cost) and other uncompensated care of $30,670,685 (at cost) for a total uncompensated care of $40,971,447. The NLH hospitals had a Medicare shortfall of $151,080,805 and a Medicaid shortfall of $68,118,402. Please see the following excerpt from the Northern Light Health Annual Report 2025 to the Community for details of community benefit projects at NLH members:Guiding the wayEvery day, our Northern Light Health team demonstrates extraordinary commitment to our mission and to the patients, families, and communities who rely on us. Their dedication serves as a constant reminder of the strength that only comes from working together with purpose.This annual report tells some of the stories that reflect our determination to care for the people of Maine. From our smallest health centers to our largest hospitals, Northern Light Health is united in our belief that every person in our state deserves high-quality, compassionate care as close to home as possible.We are proud of our progress, inspired by the work ahead, and committed to leading Northern Light Health toward a future filled with promise. We are committed to serving you for generations to come.Thank you for your trust and support.R. Guy Hudson, MDPresident & CEONorthern Light HealthJohn RyanBoard ChairNorthern Light HealthTraveling HomeTheres no place like Hancock CountyAfter 24 years on the road as a travel nurse, Karen Beinhauer, BSN, RN, has learned that every hospital has its own rhythm. It wasnt until she arrived at Northern Light Maine Coast Hospital that she realized shed found something she didnt even know she was searching for a place to call home.I knew this was where I wanted to stay because when I got here, it felt like coming home, Beinhauer says. The people, the community, the staff, it just felt comfortable and kind. Everyone waves, everyone helps. Its a special place.Beinhauers path to Maine wasnt straightforward. She began her nursing career in Mississippi in the early 2000s, working as a single mother in an intensive care unit (ICU). I was struggling to make my student loan payments, she remembers. My mom suggested travel nursing, and I laughed, Thats for single people! But the next day, a travel nursing brochure showed up in my mailbox. I called, signed up, and that was the start of my journey.After more than two decades on the road, Beinhauer worked across the country, and found her way to Maine. Its paradise here, she says. The sea air, the trees, it smells like Christmas in June. I collect sea glass and shells, go clamming, and make little art pieces for friends. When Im not at work, youll find me on the beach on Little Cranberry Island just enjoying life.When she joined Maine Coast Hospital, Beinhauer felt an immediate connection with the team. We have an incredible group, she adds. Our managers and supervisors step in to help whenever needed, and everyone supports each other. Its about caring for our patients and for each other.For Ann-Margaret Shaheen, MSN, RN, chief nursing officer at Northern Light Maine Coast and Blue Hill hospitals, Beinhauers story represents something much larger. Travel nurses are vital to our staffing model at the current time, but they are not a permanent solution, Shaheen explains.Travel nurses typically sign 13-week contracts. Because they move frequently and work in varied settings, travelers are often quick learners who bring rich clinical experience. We value their expertise, states Shaheen. Our goal, however, is to grow our local teams and to decrease turnover. This will help us improve teamwork, build relationships, and ultimately to standardize processes and quality initiatives that improve patient safety.When a travel nurse decides to stay, I believe it speaks volumes about our culture and work environment. It also strengthens our care team.Weve had two former travel nurses stay and become charge nurses leaders among their peers, Shaheen says. Another stayed and grew into a managerial role. Its wonderful to recruit these nurses and to see that professional growth happens right here.What draws them in? Beyond a supportive work environment with opportunity for professional growth, Shaheen credits the beauty of coastal Maine. We have Acadia National Park, internationally renowned art, music, and sailing, community theater, organic farms, and a welcoming spirit, she says. People fall in love with this area and with the people who live and work here. When every mile mattersFor babies born too soon or with critical health needs, every moment matters. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, Northern Light Eastern Maine Medical Center now has a new modern ambulance created just for babies in need of critical care. Funded entirely by donations from the Northern Light Eastern Maine Medical Center Auxiliary, the Professional Logging Contractors of the Northeast, and compassionate community members, the new ambulance gives Maines smallest patients their strongest possible start in life.As the only Level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) north of Portland, Eastern Maine Medical Center cares for more than 450 newborns each year, including about 150 who begin their fight for life in other hospitals. Our Neonatal Transport Team is made up of highly trained nurses who stand ready day and night to bring these babies safely to our NICU.Every time we transport a newborn, we know were carrying someones whole world, says Ken Roy, RN, a member of the Neonatal Transport Team. This ambulance gives us everything we need to provide the best care possible and helps us give families hope when they need it most. Parents are often fearful of their newborn infant leaving their side and traveling to a tertiary center miles away, and they are assured that their infant is traveling in a very safe and reliable ambulance, he adds.This ambulance means peace of mind for families and a smoother, safer journey for their babies, says Mikele Neal, RN, associate vice president of Patient Care Services. Its a gift from our community that will touch lives for years to come.Mission ready for flight Northern Light Acadia Hospital and the 101st Air Refueling Wing,Maine Air National Guard unite for mental healthAt Northern Light Acadia Hospital, the mission to improve the health of our communities extends far beyond the hospitals walls. A growing partnership with the Maine Air National Guards 101st Air Refueling Wing, is strengthening mental health awareness among military service members and changing lives.For Susan Slick, MHR, MBA, director of education at Acadia, and a technical sergeant in the 101st, this collaboration represents the perfect intersection of her two worlds. I joined the Maine Air National Guard right out of high school, Slick says. I also started working at Acadia Hospital when it was first built. I thought Id stay at both for my whole career.After a detour, led by her husbands active-duty Air Force career around the country, Slick returned home to Bangor and rejoined the team at Acadia. I left the best job I ever had, she says. When I got the chance to come back, I took it.After resuming her role at the hospital, Slick wanted to do more. I really wanted to bridge the two worlds, what Ive learned in the military and what Ive learned in mental health, she says. So, I rejoined the Guard with the goal of bringing mental health training and understanding to my fellow service members.That vision led to several joint mental health and resiliency workshops between Acadia and the 101st, including Psychological First Aid, a course designed to teach calm, compassionate support in times of crisis.Psychological first aid is like CPR for emotional health, Slick explains. Its not just for when someone is depressed or suicidal. It can be used anytime someone is in crisis like after a car accident, a natural disaster, or a difficult deploymentFor Master Sergeant Amanda Allard, executive secretary for the 101st and member of the bases Disaster Mental Health Team, the training proved immediately valuable.Acadia Hospital approached us about the Psychological First Aid course, and we jumped at the chance, Allard says. It taught us techniques we can use right away, like box breathing, to help calm someone and get them through that initial phase of trauma.Allard soon found herself using the skill outside of work. My husband and I came across a car accident one night, she recalls. One woman was very upset, so I used box breathing with her, in for four seconds, hold, out for four seconds, hold again. She looked at me afterward and said, Do it again. It was so validating to see how much it helped.Allard says the training changed the way she approaches stressful situations. It helped me understand that if I walk into a situation calm, that calm spreads, she says. These are things I use not just at work, but in my personal life, too.The collaboration between Northern Light Acadia Hospital and the 101st Air Refueling Wing to provide these trainings is crucial, Allard says. The continued collaboration helps us all be better prepared to take care of each other.Slick agrees. The Guard and Acadia both support each other in incredible ways, she says. Taking care Care that meets you where you areLocated just a few blocks off the main road in Sangerville, the Northern Light Health Center serves as a vital connection point between Northern Light Mayo Hospital and Northern Light CA Dean Hospital. The facility offers greater access to services than many rural communities could imagine.A 30-minute drive from Greenville and just a 12-minute drive from Dover-Foxcroft, the Sangerville health center is a hub for care, accessible to patients in Piscataquis and parts of Penobscot and Somerset Counties. The facility offers an unique breadth of services for a rural location, including urology, womens health, prenatal care, newborn and pediatric care, primary care, diabetes management, physical and occupational therapy, ultrasound and x-ray, lab draws, walk-in care, and behavioral health support, all under one roof.Many practitioners at Sangerville split their time between the health center, Mayo, and CA Dean Hospital locations. While Ahmed Elnoor, MD, a urologist and Kristin Hartt, MD, a family practitioner focusing on womens health see patients in Sangerville, Dr. Elnoor performs surgery and Dr. Hartt delivers babies at Mayo Hospital. Galen Durose, MD, a family medicine provider, sees patients in Greenville and Sangerville. This integrated model allows patients to receive coordinated care close to home.Being able to care for patients throughout their lifespan from routine primary care to pregnancy and delivery right here in Sangerville makes a meaningful difference for families, says Dr. Hartt. Im proud to be part of a team that brings comprehensive care to our community, without the need for long travel.By building on historic ties with CA Dean hospital and leveraging proximity to Dover-Foxcroft, the Sangerville health center continues to ensure that patients in rural Maine have exceptional access to care right in their own backyard.From hospital to horsebackHealing through horsesAt Northern Light Mercy Hospital, compassion often extends well beyond the walls of the workplace. For Donna Lariviere, an occupational therapist, that commitment continues at a local horseback riding center, where she spends countless hours supporting therapeutic riding and hippotherapy programs. This specialized therapy provided by trained clinicians, including occupational therapists, uses the horses natural movement as part of treatment. She helps with lessons, barn operations, and daily horse care, serving riders who range in age from just 15 months to adults in their nineties. Each rider enters the arena with their own goals, challenges, and hopes, and Lariviere meets them where they are.Therapeutic riding gives disabled riders physical support by helping them get stronger, but it also gives them emotional support because it gives them confidence by doing something different, Lariviere addsBeyond physical gains, therapeutic riding offers powerful emotional and psychological benefits. Riders often experience increased confidence, improved emotional regulation, reduced stress, and meaningful social connection, whether through bonding with the horse or interacting with others in the program.The work, she says, is deeply rewarding, in part because her two worlds naturally overlap. My two worlds really intersect, Lariviere says. The same skills I use as an occupational therapist at Mercy hospital, meeting people where they are, building trust, and focusing on what matters most to them, are the skills I bring into the arena every day. Advancing cancer care close to homeFor people facing cancer, the journey can be uncertain. Between appointments, treatments, and everything that comes with a diagnosis, being surrounded by family, friends, and familiar places can make an incredible difference.At Northern Light AR Gould Hospital, a new TrueBeam linear accelerator, an advanced radiation therapy system, now ensures that patients can continue to receive state-of-the-art care without leaving their communities. This technology delivers quicker, more precise treatments, and replaces an older model that served Aroostook County for more than a decade.Radiation is an essential option for cancer treatment, explains Naghmeh Isfahanian, MD, radiation oncologist. It can be used before surgery to shrink a tumor, after surgery to eliminate remaining cancer cells, or even as a primary treatment on its own. The new linear accelerator allows us to deliver those treatments faster and more accurately while protecting healthy tissue and minimizing side effectsWith its enhanced imaging and speed, the TrueBeam also expands what is possible. We can now treat certain cancers, like those in the liver or multiple brain lesions, that we could not safely treat before, says Dr. Isfahanian.For patients in northern Maine, where winter roads and long drives can turn daily radiation treatments into a major challenge, having this technology closer to home is life-changing. Radiation therapy typically happens Monday through Friday for several weeks, Dr. Isfahanian notes. For someone who would otherwise have to travel two or three hours each way, being able to stay close to home truly matters.Other recent investments, including new infusion chairs at Northern Light Mayo Hospital and a hair preservation program at Northern Light Maine Coast Hospital, are just some of the ways Northern Light Health extends advanced, compassionate cancer care to patients throughout Maine.Every patient deserves quality safe care, says Brenda Farnham, BSN, RN, associate vice president for clinical services at Northern Light Cancer Care in Brewer. Sixty-one percent of Maines population lives in rural communities. We know the barriers people face, such as distance, weather, cost, and time away from work and family. By continuing to invest in facilities, equipment, and creative care models, we can reduce those burdens and improve outcomes.David Brewster: A neighbors gift;a communitys lifeline to Northern Light CA Dean HospitalSome places stay with you long after you first encounter them. For David Brewster, that place is Moosehead Lake. A college trip decades ago brought him to the region for the first time, and something about its vastness, quiet strength, and sense of community settled into his soul. He never got it out of his system, nor did he ever want to.Today, Brewster, a retired attorney from Boston, treasures his home in Beaver Cove, where his family now gathers and feels connected to something larger than themselves. With that deep affection has come an equally deep sense of responsibility to the people who call this region home year-round. Brewster has long been known locally as someone who gives generously and quietly, supporting Northern Light CA Dean Hospital and other charities that ensure his neighbors have access to food, shelter, transportation, and healthcare.The Moosehead Lake region has been part of my life for so many years, and giving back has always been central to who I am. Helping neighbors access care is one small way to honor a place that means so much to our family, reflects Brewster.In 2025, that commitment took on new urgency. Donors of Northern Light CA Dean and Mayo Hospitals learned of the critical need for a wheelchair-accessible van to help patients across Piscataquis County, where there is no public transportation. For older adults, people with mobility challenges, and patients requiring frequent medical visits, reaching care can sometimes feel impossible.Brewster understood this immediately. After decades navigating the rural roads and long distances of the Moosehead Lake region, he knew how life-changing reliable transportation could be. Within days of receiving the appeal, he contacted the philanthropy team to learn more. When he heard how many people the van would serve, he offered to fund the entire purchase so the barrier could be removed at once.His gift is more than a donation; it is a lifeline. The new van will help residents reach essential appointments safely, restore mobility, and lift a heavy burden off of families and caregivers.For the people of Piscataquis County, Brewsters generosity is invaluable. For Brewster and his family, it is a heartfelt tribute to a place they love and a community they proudly call home.Giving by Organization Acadia Hospital $154,145AR Gould Hospital $151,445Blue Hill Hospital $490,320CA Dean Hospital $210,058EMMC & Childrens Miracle Network Hospitals $3,851,036Home Care & Hospice $498,322Inland Hospital $55,964Maine Coast Hospital $322,378Mayo Hospital $77,368Mercy Hospital $2,502,496Northern Light Health Foundation $24,310Sebasticook Valley Hospital $95,153Total $8,432,995 Community BenefitFor the year ended September 30, 2025Total Community Investment by CategoryCommunity Health Improvement Services $2,366,195 Health Professions Education $1,822,491Research $1,517,647 Cash and In-Kind Contributions $131,121 Community Building Activities $347,504 Community Benefit Operations $1,901,310Traditional Charity Care $10,300,762 Unpaid Cost of Public Programs: Medicaid $68,118,402 Medicare $151,080,806Total Systemwide $237,586,238Northern Light Health Member Community Benefit Acadia Hospital $12,992,305AR Gould Hospital $19,401,076Blue Hill Hospital $433,598CA Dean Hospital $416,063Eastern Maine Medical Center $143,946,350Home Care & Hospice $1,070,707Home Office $442,685Inland Hospital $11,620,066Maine Coast Hospital $9,281,055Mayo Hospital $103,478Mercy Hospital $36,320,867Sebasticook Valley Hospital $1,557,988Safe beginningsNorthern Light Health earns gold for infant sleep safetyNorthern Light Health is proud to share that all of our hospitals with birthing programs have earned Gold Safe Sleep Hospital certification from the Cribs for Kid National Safe Sleep Hospital Certification Program. This recognition honors our commitment to following the highest standards in infant safe sleep and ensuring that every newborn receives the safest start possible.This achievement reflects the dedication and compassion of our teams across Northern Light Health, says Natalia Hall, MBA, associate vice president, Northern Light Womens Health. Our caregivers have worked diligently to meet these gold-level standards, because every baby deserves a safe and healthy beginning.Congratulations to our safe sleep certified hospitals, delivering on our promise of comprehensive and compassionate care for expectant mothers, newborns, and families throughout Maine every day. Northern Light AR Gould Hospital Northern Light Eastern Maine Medical Center Northern Light Maine Coast Hospital Northern Light Mayo Hospital Northern Light Mercy HospitalOn the road or in the hospital,these new devices never skip a beatEvery second counts when your heart stops. Thanks to a grant from the Maine Emergency Medical Services Stabilization Program, our teams now have new chest compression devices.Manual compressions require switching out providers every two minutes, which can be hard in urgent situations, explains Michael St. Laurent, EMT-P, manager of EMS operations. With these devices, we can maintain consistent compressions while allowing our team to focus on other critical aspects of care for that same patient. Chest compression devices are portable, automated machines built to keep chest compressions going without interruption, allowing EMS and emergency staff the chance to place more focus on airway support, IV access, medication, and other needs.One device is ready around the clock on a 24-hour ambulance and the other moves between a 12-hour ambulance before moving to the Emergency Department at Northern Light Sebasticook Valley Hospital overnight.Were so grateful for the state funding that made this possible, says Randy Clark, MBA, president of Northern Light Sebasticook Valley Hospital. This is another way we can be there for our patients, whether on the road or here in the hospital when every heartbeat matters.The grant also funded devices that benefit communities supported by Acadia Hospital, CA Dean Hospital, Eastern Maine Medical Center, and Mayo Hospital.Northern Light HealthBy the numbersOur Members 9 Hospitals 34 Primary care locations 38 Primary care practices 1 Integrated physician organization 7 Nursing homes 6 Emergency transport members 5 Joint ventures 9,790 Employees 1 Home care and hospice organizationOur Services 379,154 Primary care visits 30,714 Inpatient admissions 7,393 Observation admissions 2,995 Births 28,546 Surgical cases outpatient 7,363 Surgical cases inpatient 462,302 Imaging procedures 525 Nursing home long-term care beds 721 Available acute care beds 15,686 ER visits inpatient 101,789 ER visits outpatient 2,292,865 Outpatient visits 104,048 Telehealth visits 451 EMMC cardiac surgeries 1,300 Home care and hospice patients 7,410 Cath lab procedures 69,808 Walk-in care visitsLifeFlight of Maine 1,866 Helicopter Air Transports 220 Fixed Wing Air Transports 836 Ground Transports 257 Total Scene Calls 113 Towns Responded to for Scene Calls 514 Traumatic Injury TransportsNorthern Light Medical Transport 17,607 Total Transports 1,999 Total Number of Wheelchair Van Transports 112 Total Number of Towns/Townships/Unorganized Territories in Response Area Home Care & Hospice and Telehealth 132,154 Home Health Patient Visits 44,736 Hospice Patient Visits 176,890 Total Home Care & Hospice Patient Visits 198,938 Telehealth Visits Day MonitoredJoint Ventures County Physical Therapy, LLC LifeFlight of Maine, LLC LTC, LLC MedComm, LLC Uniship Courier Services, LLC System MapBangorNorthern Light Acadia HospitalNorthern Light Eastern Maine Medical CenterNorthern Light Health FoundationNorthern Light Home Care & HospiceNorthern Light PharmacyNorthern Light Work HealthNorthern Light Healthy Life EAPBlue HillNorthern Light Blue Hill HospitalBrewerNorthern Light Eastern Maine Medical CenterNorthern Light Health Home OfficeNorthern Light PharmacyDover FoxcroftNorthern Light Mayo HospitalNorthern Light Work HealthEllsworthNorthern Light Home Care & HospiceNorthern Light Maine Coast HospitalNorthern Light Work HealthGreenvilleNorthern Light CA Dean HospitalPittsfieldNorthern Light Sebasticook Valley HospitalNorthern Light Work HealthPortlandNorthern Light Home Care & HospiceNorthern Light Mercy HospitalNorthern Light PharmacyNorthern Light Healthy Life EAPNorthern Light Work HealthPresque IsleNorthern Light AR Gould HospitalNorthern Light Home Care & HospiceNorthern Light Work HealthWatervilleNorthern Light Home Care & HospiceNorthern Light Work HealthOur mission, vision, and values Our Mission We improve the health of the people and communities we serve.

organizations which are Section 509(a)(1) and 509(a)(2) organizations and their controlled subsidiaries that are also Section 509(a)(1) and 509(a)(2) organization. NLH is the parent organization of these related organizations. See Schedule A, Part I, Line 12 for listing of organizations. Part IV, Section C, Line 1: Control Or Management Of Supported Orgs. The Eastern Maine Healthcare Systems d/b/a Northern Light Health (NLH) Restated Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws have tightly integrated the supported organization and NLH board governance structure into a unified and cohesive governance system in which the NLH board has ultimate authority over the supported organizations with respect to nearly all governance domains. Thus, Northern Light Health board authority goes far beyond traditional powers of appointment and reserved powers of approval typical of many healthcare system governance models and actually vests authority in the Northern Light Health board to initiate and direct action on the part of any one or more supported organizations, in essence acting itself as the supported organization board, thus establishing the presence of common supervision or control among the governing bodies of all organizations involved. Type II supporting organization status for Northern Light Health was confirmed by the IRS on March 8, 2016, in response to a request filed on form 8940 on September 28, 2015.

Endowment funds are designated for purposes that align within this organization's exempt purpose. Part X : FIN48 Footnote Income TaxesNorthern Light Health, its hospitals, and certain other affiliates have been determined by the Internal Revenue Service to be tax-exempt charitable organizations as described in Section 501(c)(3) or 501(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) and, accordingly, are exempt from federal income taxes on related income pursuant to Section 501(a) of the Code. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes has been recorded in the accompanying financial statements for these organizations.Tax-exempt charitable organizations could be required to record an obligation for income taxes as the result of a tax position they have historically taken on various tax exposure items including unrelated business income or tax status. Under guidance issued by FASB, assets and liabilities are established for uncertain tax positions taken or positions expected to be taken in income tax returns when such positions are judged to not meet the "more-likely-than-not" threshold, based upon the technical merits of the position. Estimated interest and penalties, if applicable, related to uncertain tax positions are included as a component of income tax expense. Northern Light Health has evaluated its tax position taken or expected to be taken on income tax returns and concluded the impact to be not material.Certain of Northern Light Health's affiliates are taxable entities. Deferred taxes related to these entities are based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years the differences are expected to reverse.
