Mapping the Washington Group on disability statistics disability measure to the Health Utilities Index Mark 3 : development and testing of qualitative and predictive multivariable models in a general population...: CS11-633/2025-1E-PDF

"Statistics Canada routinely collects information on functional health and related concepts. Recently, the Washington Group (WG) measure of disability was introduced to the Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS). The WG measure is used as a tool for developing internationally comparable data on disability. In alternate cycles of the CCHS, it replaces the Health Utilities Index Mark 3 (HUI3), a generic preference-based measure of health-related quality of life. The HUI3 is used to derive evaluative health measures common in population health and economic evaluations. Because the WG measure is not preference-based, it cannot be used to derive these measures. To address these resulting data gaps, this study mapped the health state utility values of the HUI3 score from the WG measure"--Abstract, background, page 5.
