Margin Prediction (Trained Ridge Model)
2.1%
R²=0.34 | n=4,907 | Grade B | Actual: -6.8%
Ridge regression trained on 4,907 HCRIS hospitals. 90% CI: [-26.2%, 30.4%]. P67 nationally.
| Driver | Value | Effect | Explanation | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue/Bed | 3190948.818 | +0.2250 | Higher Revenue/Bed increases predicted margin | |
| Expense/Bed | 3407189.932 | -0.2156 | Higher Expense/Bed decreases predicted margin | |
| Bed Utilization Value | 2768734.233 | +0.0629 | Higher Bed Utilization Value increases predicted m | |
| State Peer Margin | -0.082 | -0.0269 | Lower State Peer Margin decreases predicted margin | |
| Occupancy | 0.868 | +0.0195 | Higher Occupancy increases predicted margin |
Turnaround: 54%Turnaround possible (54%) but uncertain. Margin improvement depends on Revenue/Bed.
