The rating affirmation is based on a number of factors, including NHRMC’s leading market share and its track record of improving financial performance.

NHRMC also faces several challenges, including the hospital’s geographic concentration and liquidity measures that are weaker than higher rated peer organizations.

The rating outlook is stable, reflecting Moody’s expectation that NHRMC will continue to generate strong cash flow, allowing it to support higher planned capital spending.
