Margin Prediction (Trained Ridge Model)
-4.0%
R²=0.34 | n=4,907 | Grade B | Actual: -10.6%
Ridge regression trained on 4,907 HCRIS hospitals. 90% CI: [-32.4%, 24.2%]. P52 nationally.
| Driver | Value | Effect | Explanation | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue/Bed | 708768.575 | -0.1215 | Lower Revenue/Bed decreases predicted margin | |
| Expense/Bed | 783914.569 | +0.1076 | Higher Expense/Bed increases predicted margin | |
| Reimbursement Quality | 0.078 | +0.0355 | Higher Reimbursement Quality increases predicted m | |
| Net-to-Gross | 0.092 | -0.0310 | Lower Net-to-Gross decreases predicted margin | |
| State Peer Margin | -0.008 | +0.0279 | Higher State Peer Margin increases predicted margi |
Turnaround: 43%Turnaround possible (43%) but uncertain. Margin improvement depends on improving Revenue/Bed.
