MANCHESTER, N.H.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Elliot Hospital, a founding member of SolutionHealth, has received a bond rating upgrade from Moody's Investors Service. The hospital's revenue bond rating improved to A3 with a stable outlook from Baa1.
“This upgrade reflects our success in demonstrating sound financial performance and debt service coverage, while managing various service investments and growth strategies without compromising fiscal responsibility,” says Mike Turilli, Senior Vice President of Finance and Chief Financial Officer of Elliot Health System.
