Description: Valuation for short–duration health insurance products is as much an art as it is a science. This session offers an opportunity for experienced practitioners in the field to compare brushstrokes and learn from their peers. Moderators will frame the discussion, but you are expected to actively participate. Topics could include such matters as: approaches to estimating ultimate incurred claims for immature incurral months, considerations for selecting among completion factor methods, how to effectively employ claim inventory data, assessing incurred–claim and paid–claim seasonality and approaches to premium deficiency reserve (PDR) testing and documentation.
