Margin Prediction (Trained Ridge Model)
-4.7%
R²=0.34 | n=4,907 | Grade B | Actual: -4.7%
Ridge regression trained on 4,907 HCRIS hospitals. 90% CI: [-33.0%, 23.6%]. P50 nationally.
| Driver | Value | Effect | Explanation | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue/Bed | 235288.500 | -0.1876 | Lower Revenue/Bed decreases predicted margin | |
| Expense/Bed | 246333.146 | +0.1738 | Higher Expense/Bed increases predicted margin | |
| Reimbursement Quality | 0.308 | -0.0306 | Higher Reimbursement Quality decreases predicted m | |
| State Peer Margin | -0.006 | +0.0290 | Higher State Peer Margin increases predicted margi | |
| Bed Utilization Value | 194099.583 | -0.0225 | Lower Bed Utilization Value decreases predicted ma |
Turnaround: 42%Turnaround possible (42%) but uncertain. Margin improvement depends on improving Revenue/Bed.
