S&P also affirmed its “AA+” rating on NMHC’s series 2013 bonds and Chicago-based Northwestern Memorial Hospital’s series 2009A and 2009B bonds. S&P affirmed its “AA+/A-1+” rating on Northwestern Memorial Hospital’s series 2002C bonds.

“The ratings reflect our view of NMHC’s strong operations for the first nine months of fiscal 2016,” said S&P analyst Brian Williamson.

The outlook is stable, reflecting S&P’s opinion that NMHC will maintain strong operations as its leadership continues to maintain the expense base while investing in other facilities and affiliations.
