Above 75% is roughly considered to be high occupancy. Efficiency drops at that point for various reasons, such as the difficulty in moving patients between units due to a lack of beds. These numbers are also comprised of large regions of the state with multiple facilities, but the facilities still operate independently.

For adults, those regions of Michigan have the following ICU utilizations:

Region 1: 90%

Region 2N: 82%

Region 2S: 89%

Region 3: 94%

Region 5: 85%

Region 6: 87%

Region 7: 94%

Region 8: 72%
