W3 DRS utilizes Symmetry Health Data Systems’ Episode Treatment Groups (ETG). Symmetry’s patented ETG grouper is a patient illness classification system and episode building software product that captures all clinically relevant services and prescriptions provided during a patient’s treatment. ETGs group services together based on data from inpatient, outpatient and pharmacy claims and can be used to perform risk-adjusted performance comparisons among physicians.
