I don't think they use anything like 'hit points' as their measure of your readiness to leave. They look at how likely you are to suddenly need hospital level care again, and how likely you are to die immediately if you can't get it. Thus after open heart surgery the stay is based on how fast you recover the ability to breathe without oxygen, walk and move around without assistance, and how well your heart is behaving. Actual healing of the wounds, past the "they aren't doing something they shouldn't" level isn't really a consideration.
