FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The Commons Opens Membership to Independent Health Care Providers Across Maine

Bangor, Maine – Briggs Solutions for Business has announced that The Commons, a new statewide peer network for independent medical and wellness practices, is now accepting members.

The Commons is designed to support the unique operational and administrative challenges faced by small and mid-sized independent practices. Built as a collaborative, community-first resource, The Commons provides a private online space where providers, practice managers, and support staff can share questions, exchange real-world solutions, and strengthen their professional networks.

“Independent clinics are essential to the health and vitality of Maine’s communities,” said Ashleigh Briggs, Co-Founder of The Commons and Owner of Briggs Solutions for Business. “Yet so many of these practices operate without a support system for the behind-the-scenes work that keeps their doors open. The Commons creates a space where people can learn from one another, access shared knowledge, and feel connected to peers who understand the reality of running an independent practice.”

Membership is free to join at this time, and is open to professionals across a wide range of medical and wellness fields including primary care, mental health, physical therapy, chiropractic, naturopathic care, aesthetics, massage therapy, and other independent modalities.

Through The Commons, members gain access to:

• A private online community focused on operational questions and shared learning

• Peer support from healthcare professionals across Maine

• Practical guidance on systems, workflows, patient engagement, and practice operations

• Opportunities to build relationships with others committed to strengthening local, independent care

The initiative aligns with a broader statewide movement to support Maine’s healthcare infrastructure through collaboration, innovation, and sustainable practice models.

“We believe Maine’s greatest innovation is each other,” Briggs added. “The Commons is about building connection and resilience among the practitioners who show up for our communities every day.”
