Margin Prediction (Trained Ridge Model)
-5.3%
R²=0.34 | n=4,907 | Grade B | Actual: -3.1%
Ridge regression trained on 4,907 HCRIS hospitals. 90% CI: [-33.6%, 23.0%]. P48 nationally.
| Driver | Value | Effect | Explanation | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue/Bed | 328852.250 | -0.1745 | Lower Revenue/Bed decreases predicted margin | |
| Expense/Bed | 338991.750 | +0.1624 | Higher Expense/Bed increases predicted margin | |
| Reimbursement Quality | 0.336 | -0.0388 | Higher Reimbursement Quality decreases predicted m | |
| State Peer Margin | -0.006 | +0.0290 | Higher State Peer Margin increases predicted margi | |
| Net-to-Gross | 0.601 | +0.0260 | Higher Net-to-Gross increases predicted margin |
Turnaround: 41%Turnaround possible (41%) but uncertain. Margin improvement depends on improving Revenue/Bed.
