Interventional Cardiology Physician Salary in Maine (2026)
A Interventional Cardiology physician practicing in Maine can expect a base salary inside the national Interventional Cardiology band of $580K to $850K, with the median tracking close to $675K. The Maine variation on that number is driven mostly by anchor-employer comp structure in Portland, Bangor, Lewiston, Augusta and by shortage-area incentive stacking outside those metros — not by Maine cost-of-living alone.

Where Interventional Cardiology offers land highest in Maine
Maine is dominated by MaineHealth, Northern Light Health, Central Maine Healthcare, and MaineGeneral Health, with extensive rural and critical-access recruiting. For Interventional Cardiology, the highest-comp Maine opportunities I see are typically not in the urban core of Portland — they sit in rural and HPSA-designated counties where the same Interventional Cardiology role carries a 10-25% base premium plus signing bonuses of $30K-$100K and loan repayment of $50K-$200K layered on top of base. That stacking can push an Maine Interventional Cardiology offer comfortably above the $850K national ceiling in year-one total cash.
Maine incentive programs that boost Interventional Cardiology take-home
The Maine Health Professional Loan Repayment Program supports primary care, behavioral health, and dental providers in HPSA sites. The Doctors for Maine's Future program supports physician training and rural placement. The Maine Conrad State 30 J-1 waiver program is consistently filled. NHSC loan repayment is widely used across rural Maine FQHCs and critical-access hospitals. For Interventional Cardiology specifically, these federal and state programs frequently add the equivalent of $30K-$60K per year of pre-tax value over the first three years of service.
How I benchmark a Interventional Cardiology offer in Maine
When a Interventional Cardiology candidate sends me an Maine offer, I check three things in order: (1) where the base lands inside the $580K–$850K band relative to MGMA regional percentiles, (2) the wRVU conversion factor and ramp/threshold structure, and (3) the call burden and stipend. Maine's licensing pace also matters for ramp timing: The Maine Board of Licensure in Medicine and Maine Board of Osteopathic Licensure license with typical timelines of 60-120 days for US-trained physicians.
