Pediatric and behavioral health beds counted as general capacity

System failure identification

Regional capacity figures include beds that cannot accept most patients. Reported headroom exceeds usable headroom, and the gap widens exactly when general demand rises. Decisions are made against headroom that does not exist for the patient in question.
Data pipeline diagnostics

Aggregation sums bed counts without their eligibility constraints. A bed is a bed in the schema, and the population it can serve is not represented at all. The schema records a count and discards the eligibility that qualifies it.
Predictive computational model

Report capacity as a matrix of bed type against patient population rather than a single total. Usable capacity for a given patient becomes a lookup instead of an assumption. The matrix is a reshaping of data already held, not a new collection.
Workflow integration

Replace the headline total with the matrix in coordination views. Keeping both invites the single number to be quoted, because it is the easier one to repeat. A simpler wrong number will always outcompete a more accurate complex one.
