MaineHealth is a non-profit healthcare provider that operates a Level I trauma center and eight other hospitals, according to NBC News. It employs over 20,000 people in the states of Maine and New Hampshire. In a prepared statement, MaineHealth officials said, 'MaineHealth deeply regrets this error.' According to ABC News, the error was caused by a computer program that generates messages from real estate agents. No medical records were altered, and the computer program has since been corrected to prevent a recurrence. Officials of the largest healthcare provider in the state of Maine (USA) have apologized to the families of hundreds of people who are still alive. An error in the computer system led to MaineHealth officials sending condolences to more than 500 living people to inform their relatives of their deaths. According to WCSH, MaineHealth, the largest healthcare provider in the state, sent false condolences to 531 people on October 20.
