Standard & Poor's has revised the outlook to positive from stable and affirmed the "BB+" long-term rating on Decatur (Texas) Hospital Authority's series 2014 revenue bonds.
Decatur Hospital Authority does business as Wise Regional Health System.
"The positive outlook reflects our view of Wise's improved operations and maximum annual debt service coverage through the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2015," said S&P credit analyst Robert Dobbins. "Furthermore, debt metrics have moderated modestly since we assigned the rating in 2014."
