Margin Prediction (Trained Ridge Model)
-7.9%
R²=0.34 | n=4,907 | Grade B | Actual: -6.7%
Ridge regression trained on 4,907 HCRIS hospitals. 90% CI: [-36.2%, 20.4%]. P42 nationally.
| Driver | Value | Effect | Explanation | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue/Bed | 2228662.155 | +0.0906 | Higher Revenue/Bed increases predicted margin | |
| Expense/Bed | 2377139.401 | -0.0887 | Higher Expense/Bed decreases predicted margin | |
| Medicaid % | 0.572 | -0.0585 | Higher Medicaid % decreases predicted margin | |
| Bed Utilization Value | 1556781.983 | +0.0227 | Higher Bed Utilization Value increases predicted m | |
| Log(Beds) | 5.231 | +0.0199 | Higher Log(Beds) increases predicted margin |
Turnaround: 36%Turnaround possible (36%) but uncertain. Margin improvement depends on Revenue/Bed.
