Margin Prediction (Trained Ridge Model)
-11.1%
R²=0.34 | n=4,907 | Grade B | Actual: -33.8%
Ridge regression trained on 4,907 HCRIS hospitals. 90% CI: [-39.4%, 17.2%]. P35 nationally.
| Driver | Value | Effect | Explanation | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue/Bed | 1342882.720 | -0.0330 | Lower Revenue/Bed decreases predicted margin | |
| Reimbursement Quality | 0.104 | +0.0281 | Higher Reimbursement Quality increases predicted m | |
| Log(Beds) | 5.385 | +0.0235 | Higher Log(Beds) increases predicted margin | |
| Expense/Bed | 1796406.298 | -0.0171 | Higher Expense/Bed decreases predicted margin | |
| Net-to-Gross | 0.221 | -0.0166 | Lower Net-to-Gross decreases predicted margin |
Turnaround: 31%Turnaround possible (31%) but uncertain. Margin improvement depends on improving Revenue/Bed.
