The Health Services Commission has identified 20 sets of health care services, known as value-based services (VBS), which can be used right away by insurance companies and purchasers both in the private and public sectors. Value-based services are medications, tests, or treatments that are highly effective, low cost, and have lots of evidence supporting their use. The Commission recommends these services have no cost sharing (copays or coinsurance) to patients in order to encourage the use of these services, given their high level of benefit.
