Margin Prediction (Trained Ridge Model)
-10.4%
R²=0.34 | n=4,907 | Grade B | Actual: -9.9%
Ridge regression trained on 4,907 HCRIS hospitals. 90% CI: [-38.7%, 17.9%]. P36 nationally.
| Driver | Value | Effect | Explanation | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| State Peer Margin | -0.088 | -0.0313 | Lower State Peer Margin decreases predicted margin | |
| Reimbursement Quality | 0.107 | +0.0270 | Higher Reimbursement Quality increases predicted m | |
| Revenue/Bed | 1455138.099 | -0.0173 | Lower Revenue/Bed decreases predicted margin | |
| Net-to-Gross | 0.258 | -0.0124 | Lower Net-to-Gross decreases predicted margin | |
| Bed Count | 81.000 | +0.0106 | Higher Bed Count increases predicted margin |
Turnaround: 32%Turnaround possible (32%) but uncertain. Margin improvement depends on improving State Peer Margin.
