Happy New Year! We hope everyone had a good holiday season. The past year, 2018, was an active one for corporate health care ratings in terms of ratings activity. Following two years in which health care rating downgrades outnumbered upgrades (3 to 2 in 2018 and 5 to 1 in 2017), 2019 is already looking like another year of credit quality deterioration in the sector.
