Intuitive

Because ETG is intuitive and adjusts for clinical severity, it can be utilized in diverse applications integral to the success of clinicians, health care researchers, and administrators.

ETG can help you:

• Identify clinically homogenous episodes of care
• Organize claims/encounter data into intuitive units
• Identify effective medical interventions
• Base your information needs on methodology
• Quantify your organization's performance

Financial and clinical metrics for analyzing evidence-based medicine

Using routinely collected claims or encounter data as input, the ETG software captures the relevant services provided during a patient's treatment, and organizes the claims/encounter data into meaningful episodes of care resulting in accurate identification of clinically homogenous episodes of care, regardless of treatment location or duration.

A foundation for superior health care management reporting

The ETG methodology is similar to that of Diagnosis Related Groups (DRGs) but with several important differences. Perhaps the most obvious is that ETG identifies and classifies an entire episode of care irrespective of whether the patient has received medical treatment as an outpatient, inpatient, or both.
