Moody's affirms 'A1' rating on Memorial Health System

Moody's Investors Service affirmed its "A1" rating on Springfield, Ill.-based Memorial Health System's outstanding debt.

The affirmation is a result of several factors, including Memorial Health System's strong market position, good operating margins and solid management team. Moody's also acknowledged the health system's heavy debt burden and operating pressure from the loss of a major physician group as well as its upcoming construction project and IT system overhaul.

The outlook is stable, reflecting Moody's expectation that the health system's management team will effectively address the operating risks.
