Michigan Breaks Down COVID-19 Numbers for Individual Hospitals

The state of Michigan is now breaking down how many COVID-19 patients are in each individual hospital.

The state says it has expanded the data it releases to the public because of new federal requirements. The data, , is updated every Friday.

The state’s number breakdown also shows ICU and bed occupancy. But it’s important to note bed occupancy numbers include all total patients, not just those with COVID-19.

1. In Northern Michigan, Munson Cadillac is the highest at 92% bed occupancy.
2. Next is Munson in Grayling at 71% bed occupancy.
3. Then Munson in Traverse City, which is at 68% bed occupancy.
4. UP Health System in Marquette is at 65%.

State wide, bed occupancy is at 74%, a number that reiterates what Michigan hospitals said in a press conference last week: Michigan

Many hospitals downstate are floating at a 80% bed occupancy or higher. MidMichigan Medical Center in Gratiot, a rural area, is already at 100% bed occupancy with just 16 COVID-19 patients and 2 in the ICU.
