Margin Prediction (Trained Ridge Model)
-22.0%
R²=0.34 | n=4,907 | Grade B | Actual: -45.4%
Ridge regression trained on 4,907 HCRIS hospitals. 90% CI: [-50.3%, 6.3%]. P19 nationally.
| Driver | Value | Effect | Explanation | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| State Peer Margin | -0.175 | -0.0960 | Lower State Peer Margin decreases predicted margin | |
| Expense/Bed | 2124985.497 | -0.0576 | Higher Expense/Bed decreases predicted margin | |
| Log(Beds) | 5.252 | +0.0204 | Higher Log(Beds) increases predicted margin | |
| Revenue/Bed | 1461573.393 | -0.0164 | Lower Revenue/Bed decreases predicted margin | |
| Reimbursement Quality | 0.228 | -0.0075 | Higher Reimbursement Quality decreases predicted m |
