Margin Prediction (Trained Ridge Model)
-9.8%
R²=0.34 | n=4,907 | Grade B | Actual: -45.7%
Ridge regression trained on 4,907 HCRIS hospitals. 90% CI: [-38.1%, 18.5%]. P37 nationally.
| Driver | Value | Effect | Explanation | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Expense/Bed | 2665401.500 | -0.1242 | Higher Expense/Bed decreases predicted margin | |
| Log(Beds) | 2.303 | -0.0481 | Lower Log(Beds) decreases predicted margin | |
| Reimbursement Quality | 0.066 | +0.0390 | Higher Reimbursement Quality increases predicted m | |
| Revenue/Bed | 1829686.800 | +0.0350 | Higher Revenue/Bed increases predicted margin | |
| Net-to-Gross | 0.072 | -0.0332 | Lower Net-to-Gross decreases predicted margin |
Turnaround: 33%Turnaround possible (33%) but uncertain. Margin improvement depends on improving Expense/Bed.
