Re: How to calculate Potential Number of hospitalization days(Beds x days in month)

 

Hi Andrew,

The D (days) is a special parameter that will always be the number of days
in the period you are calculating the indicator value for.

It is meant for exactly the kind of use case you describe, e.g. available
bed days to be used as denominator in bed occupancy rate.
