Margin Prediction (Trained Ridge Model)
-10.8%
R²=0.34 | n=4,907 | Grade B | Actual: -23.6%
Ridge regression trained on 4,907 HCRIS hospitals. 90% CI: [-39.1%, 17.5%]. P35 nationally.
| Driver | Value | Effect | Explanation | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Expense/Bed | 3568529.397 | -0.2355 | Higher Expense/Bed decreases predicted margin | |
| Revenue/Bed | 2888138.685 | +0.1827 | Higher Revenue/Bed increases predicted margin | |
| Bed Count | 657.000 | -0.0793 | Higher Bed Count decreases predicted margin | |
| Bed Utilization Value | 2907854.216 | +0.0675 | Higher Bed Utilization Value increases predicted m | |
| State Peer Margin | -0.122 | -0.0566 | Lower State Peer Margin decreases predicted margin |
Turnaround: 32%Turnaround possible (32%) but uncertain. Margin improvement depends on improving Expense/Bed.
