2023 ImpACT Conference - Session 8D: The Growing Impact of Socioeconomics on US Mortality Improvement 10.25.23 Recording

Mortality improvement for the U.S. general population has stagnated in recent years and then further deteriorated with the COVID-19 pandemic. However, mortality improvement by socioeconomic factors such as education and income has varied widely during this time period. Explore with us cause-of-death mortality rate trends as well as overall mortality improvement trends by different socioeconomic factors. Join a discussion on approaches that companies can take to proxy the insured population by applying socioeconomic factors to the general population with the goal of better understanding future mortality trends for the insured population. At the conclusion of this session, you will be able to: - Identify trends in mortality improvement by socioeconomic factors - Understand differences between the insured and general population and how socioeconomic factors influence these differences - Apply socioeconomic factors to the general population trends to better understand insured mortality and future mortality improvement trends.
