As the healthcare system, like many others, continues to face headwinds both in terms of labor costs and inflationary pressures, it remains well placed given its ability to maintain profitability and because of its 33 percent market share in Maricopa County, where it competes with other major health systems such as Banner Health and CommonSpirit, Fitch said. The report also made specific mention of HonorHealth’s ability to outbid competitor Banner to secure a valuable piece of land for future capital expenditure as evidence of its strong financial performance.
The “A+” ratings refer to both individual bonds and to the group’s Issuer Default Rating.
