Moody's Investors Service has affirmed the "A1" rating on Wichita Falls, Texas-based United Regional Health Care System's $91.4 million of outstanding debt.
The rating affirmation is based on a number of factors, including URHCS' growing market position, strong liquidity and designation as a sole community provider.
These strengths are offset by URHCS' small size and high dependence on governmental payers.
The outlook is stable, reflecting Moody's Investors Service's expectation that with its leading market share and operating improvement initiatives, URHCS's performance and liquidity will remain favorable.
