The rating affirmation is based on several factors, including Lancaster’s position as a regional tertiary referral center and the largest acute care provider in the service area with a leading market position and solid operating performance.
Lancaster also faces several challenges, including slow revenue growth, sizable comprehensive liabilities and its modest size relative to “Aa3” peers.
The outlook is stable, reflecting Moody’s belief that Lancaster will continue to sustain debt measures, produce strong financial results and maintain its leading market position.
