Deutsche Bank upgraded Health Management (NYSE: HMA) from Hold to Buy with a price target lowered $1 to $8.50.

Deutsche analyst says, "We consider the risk/reward on HMA shares to be tilted firmly to the upside in the wake of the recent sell-off. 3 key reasons: 2012 outlook is very do-able, refi positions balance sheet well, and CF is solid. While hospital sector fundamentals remain challenged and investigations remain an important risk factor here, we believe the opportunity in HMA shares presents well at 5.3x EBITDA. We've adjusted some ests in our 2012 model, bringing EBITDA (ex. HITECH) to $900M ($919M)."
