S&P raises Rogers Memorial Hospital’s outlook to positive

Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services has revised its outlook to positive from stable on the Wisconsin Health and Educational Facilities Authority’s $51.5 million series 2014A and 2014B bonds issued on behalf of Rogers Memorial Hospital, a behavioral health hospital with locations throughout Wisconsin.

S&P also affirmed its “BBB+” long-term rating on the bonds.

“After anticipating softer operations in fiscal 2015, we now anticipate that Rogers will return to more historical levels of operations, which could prompt us to raise the rating,” said Brian Williamson, an S&P credit analyst.
