On Friday, April 11, 14-year-old Stefanie Damron marked 200 days since she was reported missing from her New Sweden home after leaving during an argument with her sister, and she was last seen wearing blue jeans, a long sleeve blue shirt and black Harley Davidson hiking boots.

A new analysis by the Maine Hospital Association shows Maine hospitals rank as the fifth poorest nationally and the second-most in debt.

The report warns that high operating costs and capped MaineCare payments—combined with expenses from aging facilities—could force closures or service cuts if no changes are made.

MaineGeneral Medical Center in Augusta laid off 100 employees because of the delay — a sign of the tough times ahead for the system.
