- Average weekly COVID-19 non-ICU admissions in the facility over the past four-week period.
- Average wekly net change in ICU admissions in the facility over the past four-week period.
- Average weekly occupancy by ICU and non-ICU COVID-19 patients in the facility over the past four-week period.
- Average Length of Stay (LOS) in the facility (defaults to the latest national average).
