Description: This report revises, extends, and reformats the non-insured home and community based long term care incidence and continuance tables in the 1995 LTC Task Force Report using more extensive and more recent data from the 1984 and 1989 National Long-Term Care Surveys.

Description: This report estimates sex-specific trends in HIPAA ADL disability between 1984 and 2004 using the National Long Term Care Survey (NLTCS); estimates age-standardized 20-year changes in ADL and cognitive impairment (CI) among the U.S. elderly using the HIPAA CI trigger; estimates the joint distribution of cognitive impairment (CI) and ADL disability among aged Medicare enrollees using the HIPAA disability triggers.

Description: The new incidence and continuance tables from the National Long-Term Care Survey based on activities-of-daily-living threshold and cognitive impairment will be presented. From the Record of the Society of Actuaries, Vol. 21, No. 3b.

Description: This paper proposes the use of stochastic compartment model methods for estimating both the current direct and current indirect costs of specific cancers and for forecasting future direct and indirect costs. From Transactions of Society of Actuaries 1982, Vol. 34.

Description: The panelists at this session of the SOA 1998 New York Annual Meeting review the Long-Term-Care Intercompany Experience Study plus a non-insured study and model, and how to utilize the supplementary data included.

Description: Discussion of the separate and joint effects of obesity and diabetes on disability and mortality, and ways these effects can be used to improved insurance pricing and reserving, reverse the increasing rates of obesity and diabetes, and improve current projections of disability and mortality risks.

This article estimates the impact of obesity and diabetes on disability and mortality for those older than 65 using the 2004 National Long Term Care Survey with disability based on the Health Insurance Accountability and Portability Act's Activities of Daily Living and Cognitive Impairment triggers.

Description: This paper employs a static-component projection methodology as a first step in a more complex research agenda focusing on developing detailed population projections in which mortality, disability, and disease are represented as linked phenomena with changes in any one impacting the other two. From Retirement Needs Framework, M-RS00-1.
