Denom =number of calendar days in a given time
===Formula===
===Formula===
Beds Occupied by transferable patient = Num / Denom
===Example===
*Time Reference: Discharge Dates from Jan 1, 2021 to March 31, 2021
*Total Transfer Delays for patients who went to Ward/Home= 1798 days
*Beds Occupied by Transferable Patients  to Ward/Home = 1798 / 90 = 20.0 beds

*Beds Occupied by Transferable Patients  to Ward/Home = 113 / 90 = 1.3 beds
