An analysis of data for 2014 about forty-four low-value health services in the Virginia All Payer Claims Database revealed more than $586 million in unnecessary costs. Among these low-value services, those that were low and very low cost ($538 or less per service) were delivered far more frequently than services that were high and very high cost ($539 or more). The combined costs of the former group were nearly twice those of the latter (65 percent versus 35 percent).
对弗吉尼亚州所有支付者索赔数据库 2014 年的 44 项低价值医疗服务数据进行分析后发现,这些不必要的费用超过 5.86 亿美元。在这些低价值服务中,那些费用较低和极低的服务(每次服务 538 美元或以下)的提供频率远远高于费用较高和极高的服务(每次服务 539 美元或以上)。前者的总费用几乎是后者的两倍(前者占 65%,后者占 35%)。
