Margin Prediction (Trained Ridge Model)
-5.1%
R²=0.34 | n=4,907 | Grade B | Actual: -1.8%
Ridge regression trained on 4,907 HCRIS hospitals. 90% CI: [-33.4%, 23.2%]. P49 nationally.
| Driver | Value | Effect | Explanation | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue/Bed | 459520.028 | -0.1563 | Lower Revenue/Bed decreases predicted margin | |
| Expense/Bed | 467666.222 | +0.1465 | Higher Expense/Bed increases predicted margin | |
| Reimbursement Quality | 0.053 | +0.0428 | Higher Reimbursement Quality increases predicted m | |
| Net-to-Gross | 0.178 | -0.0214 | Lower Net-to-Gross decreases predicted margin | |
| Log(Beds) | 3.583 | -0.0184 | Lower Log(Beds) decreases predicted margin |
Turnaround: 41%Turnaround possible (41%) but uncertain. Margin improvement depends on improving Revenue/Bed.
