The assignment is a result of several factors, including Fairview’s solid market position, stable leadership, strong financial management, improved balance sheet measures and affiliation with the University of Minnesota.
The outlook is stable, reflecting Moody’s expectation that the health system’s finances will stabilize in fiscal year 2017.
