Concurrently, Fitch assigned its “AA-” issuer default rating to MNMC. Additionally, Fitch assigned its “AA-” rating to MNMC’s proposed $65.9 million series 2018A and $18.5 million series 2018B revenue bonds.

The upgrade and assignment are a result of several factors, including the medical center’s dominant market position, expanding service area, strong operating performance and favorable leverage metrics.

The outlook is stable.
