   There are 40 medical-surgical and pediatric care planning areas that have been delineated by HFSRB contained within six regions established for the State of Illinois.

2. b) Age Groups
3. 1) For medical-surgical care, ages 15 and over.
4. 2) For pediatric care, ages 0-14.

5. c) Occupancy Targets:

   1. 1) Occupancy Targets for "Modernization".

      A) Medical-Surgical	1-25 beds	60%
      	26-99 beds	75%
      	100-199 beds	85%
      	200+ beds	88%
      B) Pediatrics	1-30 beds	65%
      	31+ beds	75%

   2. 2) Occupancy Targets for "Addition of Beds".

      A) Medical-Surgical	1-99 beds	80%
      	100-199 beds	85%
      	200+ beds	90%
      B) Pediatrics	1-99 MS beds	80%
      	100-199 MS beds	85%
      	200+ MS beds	90%

6. d) Bed Capacity

   1. 1) Medical-surgical bed capacity is the total number of medical-surgical beds for a facility as determined by HFSRB pursuant to this Part.
   2. 2) Pediatric bed capacity is the total number of pediatric beds for a facility as determined by HFSRB pursuant to this Part.

7. e) Need Determination

   1. 1) Divide the three year average of experienced medical-surgical and pediatric patient days (i.e., the average of the base year's and the two prior years' patient days) for each of five age groups (0-14, 15-44, 45-64, 65-74, and 75+) by the base year population estimate for each age group, resulting in age specific base use rates;
   2. 2) Multiply each age specific base use rate by the population projection, five years from the base year, to obtain each age group's projected patient days;
   3. 3) Add the projected days of the age groups to obtain total projected patient days;

   4. 4) Increase or decrease the projected patient days by a migration patient days factor to obtain total projected patient days. The migration patient days factor is determined as follows:

      1. A) Subtract the number of medical-surgical and pediatric in-migration admissions (i.e., non-planning area residents who were admitted to planning area facilities) from the number of out-migration admissions (i.e., planning area residents who were admitted to facilities located outside of the planning area) to obtain either a positive or negative net patient migration number;
      2. B) Multiply the net patient migration number by the State's base year average length of stay for the combined medical-surgical and pediatric admissions to obtain net migration patient days for the planning area;
      3. C) Multiply the net migration patient days number by .50 (50% statutory adjustment factor) to obtain the migration patient days factor;
   5. 5) Divide the total projected patient days by the number of days in the projected year to obtain the planning area's projected average daily census (ADC);
   6. 6) Divide the ADC by .80 (80% occupancy factor) if the ADC is below 100; by .85 (85% occupancy factor) if the ADC is 100 through 199; and by .90 (90% occupancy factor) if the ADC is 200 or over, to obtain the projected planning area bed need;
   7. 7) Subtract the number of existing beds in the planning area from the projected planning area bed need to determine the projected number of surplus (excess) beds or the projected bed deficit or additional beds needed in the area.

   In assessing the number of beds required to serve the residents of a planning area, HFSRB shall establish a base year and utilize the following methodology to determine the projected number of medical-surgical and pediatric beds needed in a planning area:
