Mount Desert Island Hospital (Bar Harbor, Maine). Since it was established in 1897, Mount Desert Island Hospital has grown to not only offer care through the critical access hospital but also through a retirement community, nine regional health centers, a full-service behavioral health center and a dental clinic. MDI Hospital's teaching partnership with Philadelphia-based Penn Medicine has been touted as a model for future urban-rural healthcare partnerships across the country. MDI Hospital consistently ranks among the top critical access hospitals in the nation for both clinical and quality care — it was named a Top 20 Critical Access Hospital by the National Rural Health Association and a recipient of the Outstanding Patient Experience Award from Healthgrades this year.
