Academi (then Blackwater USA) was one of five companies picked in September 2007 by the Department of Defense Counter-Narcotics Technology Program Office in a five-year contract for equipment, material and services in support of counter-narcotics activities.
2002–2007: Blackwater Security Company
Jeremy Scahill has claimed that Blackwater Security Company (BSC) was the brainchild of Jamie Smith, a former CIA officer who became Vice President of Blackwater USA and the Founding Director of Blackwater Security Company, holding both positions simultaneously.[18] However, this claim is denied by Prince and Blackwater executive Gary Jackson who describe firing Smith from his position as a low-level administrator for "non-performance" after a 30 day contract. Additionally, Smith has been accused of further embellishing his military and contracting record to defraud investors at SCG International Risk[19]1997: Blackwater USA
Blackwater USA was formed in 1997, by Al Clark[12] and Erik Prince in North Carolina, to provide training support to military and law enforcement organizations. In explaining Blackwater's purpose, Prince stated: "We are trying to do for the national security apparatus what FedEx did for the Postal Service".[13] After working with SEAL and SWAT teams, Blackwater USA received its first government contract after the bombing of the USS Cole off of the coast of Yemen in October 2000. After winning the bid on the contract, Jamie Smith ran the program at Blackwater that trained over 100,000 sailors.[14]1. Begin link Feds to State

BELFAST, Maine — Financial difficulties have caused a Belfast apparel factory which employed people with disabilities to suspend manufacturing, casting about 70 people out of work.
Group Home Foundation, the nonprofit organization that runs Little River Apparel, also will be shutting down a downtown Belfast house that has been the home for a dozen people with cognitive disabilities...
The foundation is searching for alternative housing for the residents.

...Late last week, several Merrymeeting Behavioral Health Associates clients or their families were summoned to the company’s Pleasant Street headquarters to sign confidentiality waivers that would allow Merrymeeting Behavioral Health Associates to share their records with SequelCare of Maine, a for-profit company that provides behavioral health services as well as home- and community-based treatment, community support services, outpatient mental health, community integration services and daily living support.
Breen said Monday that she and her husband signed forms to allow Merrymeeting Behavioral Health Associates to share their daughter’s records with SequelCare, which has offices in Yarmouth, Belfast and Brewer. She said the provider was presented to them as an option for services, but that no other provider was mentioned. She and her husband are working with their daughter’s case manager to research what provider would best meet her needs.
“I was told by my workers that SequelCare is taking all of [Merrymeeting Behavioral Health Associates’] employees and their clients,” Deigan said. “The employees were to fill out applications and probably had to go through SequelCare training, so there would probably be a gap.”
Calls to SequelCare of Maine were not returned on Monday.
On March 28, the company posted on its Facebook page, inviting people who may have received a DHHS letter about losing services to join SequelCare of Maine in “a new, collaborative and integrative way of receiving case management” that includes access to “your case manager and a peer support partners to help you manage the symptoms of your mental illness on a regular basis. … The behind-the-scenes team includes a psychiatrist, a nurse, a doctor, a clinician and program managers.”
Samantha Edwards, spokeswoman for Maine DHHS, said Monday that she couldn’t speak about specific providers, but that “a number of providers” in the Brunswick area had contacted DHHS to say they could take on extra clients.
A rapid response team from DHHS met Monday with the clinical director at Merrymeeting Behavioral Health Associates to determine how best to redirect clients to new service providers after the abrupt closure on Friday.

BRUNSWICK, Maine — Mental health rehabilitation worker Jacob
Pelletier was driving in his car with a client on Friday afternoon when
his team leader at Merrymeeting Behavioral Health Associates called to
tell him he no longer had a job.
“She told me to lie to the client and tell them there’s an emergency, then take them home and end my day,” Pelletier said Wednesday.
Pelletier, along with nearly 200 other employees and state and local officials, had been told on March 28 that Merrymeeting Behavioral Health Associates would stop seeing clients on April 8, and close altogether on April 22, due to proposed state changes in reimbursement rates for MaineCare clients.
But last Friday, the company abruptly closed its doors without paying employees for hours worked and without providing state officials with information that would help them assist workers in finding new jobs...
Pelletier criticized the proposed changes.
“They’re pushing for residential care” for clients, Pelletier said. “These people can function in society, they can pay taxes. They just need encouragement and to have someone coming in a few hours a week. They’re paying me $10, $11 an hour. That’s cheaper than putting them in the hospital.”
Pelletier said that when the closure was first announced, workers were told to “transition clients out” of Merrymeeting to another service provider, SequelCare of Maine.
“We had forms we were to give out, when we gave them the news that they were losing services, to process their information quicker to SequelCare,” he said.

BRUNSWICK, Maine — Service providers and advocates for those with mental illness say the sudden closure of Merrymeeting Behavioral Health Associates tears a hole in a safety net promised by the government when state-run psychiatric institutions closed decades ago.
Merrymeeting Behavioral Health Associates in Brunswick on Monday notified state and local officials that it would close on April 22 because of anticipated cuts in the state’s reimbursement rates to providers of government-funded, community-based mental health services.
That means 400 people with disabilities or who otherwise need care will lose services abruptly, making them more vulnerable and potentially damaging their health, advocates said Wednesday.
The changes, to take effect on April 8 unless the Legislature intervenes, would affect adults and children with mental illnesses and other disabilities who receive government-funded Medicaid services in what is known as Section 17 of the MaineCare Benefits Manual.
Under the changes, mentally ill patients with MaineCare could only receive Section 17 services if they are diagnosed with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder. The Maine Department of Health and Human Services reportedly notified more than 24,000 Mainers recently that they could lose community support services.
“A large cut in the [home and community-based treatment] rate will increase youth suffering and disability and will increase reliance on institutional care (hospitals, residential treatment programs, and incarceration),” Tweed wrote. “We already have a serious problem with youth being stuck in emergency departments for days and weeks at a time waiting for placement in hospitals; cutting intensive in-home treatment will exacerbate that problem.”
Daly at Sweetser and Mid Coast Hospital spokesman Steve Trockman both said Wednesday that they expect to see an increase in patients after Merrymeeting closes.
“To have an agency that busy in the community having to close precipitously, I would imagine that will have a significant impact on us,” Daly said.
https://bangordailynews.com/2016/03/29/news/midcoast/brunswick-mental-health-care-provider-to-close-costing-170-jobs/
Merrymeeting Behavioral Health is the second midcoast Maine provider of services to DHHS clients in the past week to announce that it’s closing. Last week, Coastal Trans, which for 33 years provided rides to disabled individuals and others, announced that it would cease operations.
The Getchell Agency Inc., a Bangor-based social services provider, also filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy last week, citing changes in the state’s reimbursement practices.
**Below reversal is pointless. Sweetser is a done deal. Maine Behavioral knew this- both are in Belfast and holding hands. This is a tactic to sway the public into the smokescreen of "sudden" actions with the players feigning ignorance. While loose ends are tied. So clear to see, they do it consistently. Local to State to Federal. The contract runs out in June regardless.

4. Linking Belfast Players to Maine Black Water System
After reading this absolutely hypocritical and polarizing letter in the Republican Journal/Village Soup by Steve Ryan. I googled Steve. My prior dealings with him when he came onto the corrupt Belfast planning board in 2013 as an alternate member were of immediate pity, another selfish ego with children. Then he jumped ranks to Belfast Planning Board Chairman. Rut Ro. He is one of them but I did not know his connections. Seeing this is hair raising.

State reverses decision to award mental health services to new provider
http://bangordailynews.com/2016/04/01/news/midcoast/state-reverses-decision-to-award-mental-health-services-to-new-provider/?ref=commentsPosted April 01, 2016, at 5:07 p.m.
ROCKLAND, Maine — The Maine Department of Health and Human Services has reversed its decision to switch to a new provider of mental health services in four midcoast-area counties.
In December, DHHS had selected Sweetser to provide the services to clients in Sagadahoc, Lincoln, Knox and Waldo counties. Sweetser would have replaced Maine Behavioral Healthcare, which had provided the service in the region for more than 20 years.
Maine Behavioral complained to a DHHS appeals board and the agency invalidated the contract award to Sweetser.
Now, Sweetser has 30 days to appeal that decision to a state court.
Stephanie Hanner, communications manager for Sweetser, said her organization was disappointed and that no decision on whether to appeal had been made yet.
She pointed out that the organization already serves more than 75 communities in the state, including in the midcoast area.
Maine Behavioral Healthcare Chief Executive Officer Dennis King said, “We are, of course, pleased that the appeal panel agreed with our arguments to invalidate the decision to award the midcoast region to another provider.
“We have had over 20 years’ successful experience working in that region and we look forward to continuing our successful partnership with hospitals and other providers as we develop our care continuum,” he said.
The current contract with Maine Behavioral Health will run through June, according to King. He said he was unsure how much further the contract would be extended given the potential for an appeal. The contract that had been tentatively awarded to Sweetser was for a year.
“The ball is in their court,” King said.
Messages left with DHHS on Thursday morning were not returned.
Maine Behavioral Health has offices in Rockland and Belfast with 100 to 150 employees and 27 mobile crisis workers who meet with people either at those offices or at the hospital or their homes.
Maine Behavioral has strong ties to the hospitals in the midcoast area, including Pen Bay Medical Center in Rockport and Waldo County General Hospital in Belfast. Maine Behavioral manages the psychiatric and recovery unit at Pen Bay, a service that will continue regardless of whether the Sweetser appeal is successful. Maine Behavioral is part of the MaineHealth network that includes PBMC, Waldo County and the Lincoln Health Miles Campus in Damariscotta.

Tim Larson, teamlead for the program, scours a database to determine whether those individuals have used the mental health services of Broadlawns Medical Center or Eyerly Ball, which provides adult mental health outpatient treatment and supported residential services. If they have used services or if they demonstrate a need for mental health services during their arrest or intake assessment, Larson accompanies them to their appearance
before the judge.
From Feb. 22, 2015, through June 10,
2015, the program assisted 383 veterans. Staffed and funded with existing resources, the program has raised awareness among veterans of the services available to them.“It’s very hard to get veterans to talk about their mental disease. With this program, I can go to their cell door and talk with them,”
Mortensen says. “We focus on getting them service-connected.”
Pilot Program
Another component of the Polk County jail diversion program is a pilot program launched in 2013 with the Iowa Prescription Drug Corp. (IPDC), a nonprofit entity that provides prescription medications to Iowans who can’t afford them. In the pilot, people who need behavioral health medications who are released from jail can receive primary care services and up to 90 days’ worth of those medications at no cost.
“Making sure they get those medications is turning out to be a low-cost approach to reducing recidivism, says IPDC Executive Director Jon-Michael Rosmann.
From March 2013 through October 2014, of the 306 people incarcerated at the Polk County Jail who participated in the medication program, 115,or 37.6 percent, re-offended, compared with a recidivism rate of 71 percent of nonparticipating offenders with behavioral health disorders.
Now supported through the Iowa attorney general’s office, the program is “better for the patient, better for their families, cheaper for the jail and cheaper for the county,” Rosmann says. “It’s a win-win-win for all stakeholders and simply the right thing to do.”

4. Linking Belfast Players to Maine Black Water System
After reading this absolutely hypocritical and polarizing letter in the Republican Journal/Village Soup by Steve Ryan. I googled Steve. My prior dealings with him when he came onto the corrupt Belfast planning board in 2013 as an alternate member were of immediate pity, another selfish ego with children. Then he jumped ranks to Belfast Planning Board Chairman. Rut Ro. He is one of them but I did not know his connections. Seeing this is hair raising.
Seymour's history
There’s nothing like a good Tom Seymour column to clear one’s head and get you thinking straight again! His March 10 column was a wonderful trip through history to prove that the only successful model for society is staunch self-provision. Everyone look out for yourself!
Tom reminds us that “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” He then goes back almost 400 years for a decent example of how fierce independence and looking out for one’s self resulted in improved living conditions for society.
It’s unfortunate that Tom didn’t pause to pluck some examples from a few other centuries on his way back to Plymouth Plantation. How about the 1800s when the rich plundered the country, ruthlessly consolidated wealth, and basically enslaved men, women and children in dangerous impoverishing jobs because…well, they were looking out for themselves! Fair enough!
Or, for contrast, the 1900s, when the rich white guys were oppressed by high taxes and an over-reaching government that was delusional enough to communally build the electric grid, the interstate highway system, basic sanitation and services for the populace, the Internet and (through its funding) the finest system of higher education in the world. Oh, yes, and those obviously ill-intentioned socialists (like that George Mitchell fellow) rescued the very air, water and soil we depend on from a horde of rich white guys who were using it to advance their personal gain at the expense of…well, the planet! How unfair to them!
Finally, he could have made a stop at about eight years ago when inventive financiers saw a way to increase their own net worth in a perfectly fair contest of “fleece the public,” and ended up bringing down the entire U. S. economy. Unfortunately, socialist types again interfered and introduced a collective effort to stop this noble nest feathering! Luckily, the rich white guys got to keep their profits this time because…well, they owned the socialists!
Thanks, Tom, for putting it all in perspective. And don’t forget to remember history!

MaineHealth Selected as Innovation Partner in
National High-Value Health Collaborative Health systems and Department of Defense join collaborative to share data on outcomes,
quality and costs across range of costly conditions and treatments
PORTLAND, Maine - May 17, 2011- MaineHealth, the state's largest
integrated healthcare system, announced its selection as an innovation
partner in the High-Value Health Collaborative formed by Mayo Clinic,
Denver Health, Intermountain Healthcare, Dartmouth-Hitchcock, Cleveland
Clinic and The Dartmouth Institute for Health Policy and Clinical
Practice. The collaborative will determine best practices for delivering
healthcare and rapidly disseminate actionable recommendations to
providers and health systems across the United States. In addition to
achieving better quality and outcomes, the collaborative intends to
improve the efficiency of standard clinical care delivery to reduce the
per capita cost and to keep costs in pace with the consumer price index.National High-Value Health Collaborative Health systems and Department of Defense join collaborative to share data on outcomes,
quality and costs across range of costly conditions and treatments
Dr. James N. Weinstein, director of The Dartmouth Institute and president of the Dartmouth-Hitchcock Clinic, said, "We believe that physicians and healthcare leaders are in a key position to implement meaningful change that makes care safer, more efficient, more effective and more attuned to each patient's needs and preferences. At the same time, based on our research and individual experience, we know that by doing this, we actually lower costs."
"MaineHealth is excited about the opportunity to contribute to the body of knowledge and learn from the other partners in the collaborative," said Bill Caron, president of MaineHealth. "We believe that one of the keys to our continued success is our ability to glean knowledge about innovations and advances in clinical care from the most sophisticated healthcare organizations in the nation and adapt them to our health system."
Vance Brown, chief medical officer for MaineHealth added, "MaineHealth has taken a leadership role in developing and implementing cutting-edge clinical integration and community-health improvement initiatives. For example, our Clinical Improvement Registry/Nurse Care Management Program has helped MaineHealth markedly improve quality care for patients with diabetes and cardiovascular disease."
MaineHealth is well positioned to partner with other members of the collaborative. Communities served by MaineHealth include some of Maine's most sparsely populated and remote areas, as well as the state's most populous, economically and ethnically diverse cities. With a median age of 41.2, Maine is the "oldest" state in the nation, with almost 58 percent of Maine elders living in rural areas, more than twice the national average. Lessons learned from MaineHealth's success and capacity for developing, implementing and spreading innovation across diverse settings is transferable to other communities in the country.
MaineHealth was selected by the founding collaborative group based on a nomination and review process. Criteria included having strong research and quality improvement processes; a robust health information technology infrastructure; a commitment of personnel, operational, and financial resources; and demonstrated experience in collaboration across institutions. Other members include Baylor Health Care System, Beaumont Hospitals, Providence Health and Services, Scott & White Health Care, Sutter, UCLA Health System, University of Iowa Health Care, Virginia Mason Medical Center and the Military Health System of the Department of Defense.
The collaborative is working together in nine increasingly prevalent condition/disease-specific areas that have been shown to have wide variation in rates, costs and outcomes nationally: total knee replacement, diabetes, asthma, hip surgery, heart failure, perinatal care, depression, spine surgery and weight-loss surgery.
Data on total knee replacement, a procedure that is performed more than 300,000 times a year in the U.S., with a cost that averages $16,000 to $24,000 per surgery, has been collected from the founding institutions and is currently being analyzed. Concurrently, work on diabetes has begun. Data analytics are facilitated through The Dartmouth Institute for Health Policy and Clinical Practice, the coordinating arm of the collaborative. The Dartmouth Institute, home to the Dartmouth Atlas of Health Care, has more than 20 years of experience analyzing complex Medicare claims data and disseminating the findings.
