title: Bond volume jumps 90% in third quarter.
abstract: Tax-exempt healthcare bond volume soared 89.6% in the third quarter to $5.9 billion as hospitals took advantage of lower interest rates and anticipated a change in Internal Revenue Service rules regulating "reimbursement bonds." A total of 174 bond issues were sold during July, August and September, 82% of them were sold to finance construction and renovation projects.
