Critical Review of Stochastic Simulation Literature and Applications for Health Actuaries
The Society of Actuaries' Health Section is pleased to make available the following report examining
stochastic simulation research found in peer reviewed health journals. In addition to summarizing the stochastic simulation
literature, the authors, Louise Anderson and Brian Martinson of HealthPartners Research Foundation and Katherine Hall and
Ian Duncan of Solucia, suggest ways health actuaries can apply the modeling techniques and/or findings in their daily work.
