Redington-Fairview General Hospital

What Redington-Fairview General Hospital does

Redington-Fairview General Hospital (RFGH) is an independent, nonprofit 25-bed critical access hospital founded in 1952 and headquartered in Skowhegan, Maine. It serves more than 30,000 residents across Somerset County through its main hospital campus, a network of primary care clinics (Somerset Primary Care, Norridgewock Health Center, Rural Health Family Care in Madison), and specialty clinics including Redington Cardiology and Redington Rehab. Operating subsidiaries include Somerset Sports & Fitness (a wellness facility started in 1998), Somerset Public Health, and Health Connections (occupational health).

RFGH delivers a full continuum of acute, outpatient, and community health services including emergency medicine, inpatient and outpatient surgery, oncology, cardiology, rehabilitation therapy (physical, occupational, speech), birthing and OB/GYN care, diabetes education, behavioral health and substance use disorder treatment, diagnostic imaging, and laboratory services. Its technology foundation is built on the Meditech electronic health record system, with MyHealthChart patient portal (web and mobile) for patient access and Meditech Traverse Exchange for cross-organization health data interoperability. The hospital is licensed for 24/7 emergency medical services with 2-3 ambulances covering 8 towns and operates a LifeFlight helicopter landing pad for critical transfers.

Revenue is generated primarily through fee-for-service patient care billing to insurance and patients, with a complementary recurring revenue stream from Somerset Sports & Fitness memberships (including a $20/month online-only tier). The hospital does not publicly disclose financials and operates without external parent ownership, venture capital, or private equity investment. It is currently investing in physical expansion through a new Medical Office Building under construction (2026) and is decommissioning its aquatic services to repurpose the 46% of Rehab building space they occupied into higher-demand therapy capacity.
