The formula to calculate the Bed Occupancy Rate (BOR) is:
BOR=IDOCBDA×100
Where:
BOR is the Bed Occupancy Rate (%)
IDOC is the inpatient days of care
BDA is the bed days available
What is Bed Occupancy Rate?
Bed occupancy rate is a measure of the utilization of hospital beds. It is calculated by dividing the inpatient days of care by the bed days available, then multiplying by 100. This metric is crucial for hospital management to understand the efficiency of bed usage and to plan for capacity and resource allocation.
Example
Let's say the inpatient days of care (IDOC) is 500, and the bed days available (BDA) is 1000. Using the formula:
BOR=5001000×100=50%
So, the bed occupancy rate (BOR) is 50%.

How to Calculate Hospital Bed Occupancy Rate
Formula:Occupancy Rate=Inpatient Days of CareBed Days Available×100
Occupancy Rate: Percentage of occupied beds
Inpatient Days of Care: Total number of inpatient days
Bed Days Available: Total number of bed days available
Example:Occupancy Rate=15002000×100
Inpatient Days of Care: 1500
Bed Days Available: 2000
Calculating Inpatient Bed Occupancy Rate
Formula:Occupancy Rate=Total Inpatient DaysAvailable Beds×Number of Days×100
Occupancy Rate: Percentage of occupied beds
Total Inpatient Days: Total number of inpatient days
Available Beds: Total number of available beds
Number of Days: Number of days in the period
Example:Occupancy Rate=3000100×30×100
Total Inpatient Days: 3000
Available Beds: 100
Number of Days: 30
Average Bed Occupancy Formula
Formula:Average Occupancy Rate=Total Inpatient DaysTotal Bed Days Available×100
Average Occupancy Rate: Average percentage of occupied beds
Total Inpatient Days: Total number of inpatient days
Total Bed Days Available: Total number of bed days available
Example:Average Occupancy Rate=45006000×100
Total Inpatient Days: 4500
Total Bed Days Available: 6000
