Description: Since detailed claim information is not readily available to the Committee on Group Mortality and Morbidity on an annual basis, a special investigation of group hospital expense experience has been conducted. That investigation is summarized in this paper, and covers plan descriptions, morbidity and cost data, and continuation tables.

Description: This is a discussion of the paper, Special Investigation of Group Hospital Expense Insurance Experience by Stanley W. Ginger. From Transactions of Society of Actuaries 1952, Vol. 4, No. 10.

Description: This study produces annual claim costs for Group Weekly Indemnity Insurance and Group Employee & Dependents Hospital & Surgical Expense Insurance and exhibits the trend in these claims costs. This report is based on a study by the Committee on Group Accident and Sickness Experience designed to satisfy that need to update previous studies due to the shift in emphasis by plan of benefit, the increase in level of hospital expenses and the change in pattern of these expenses.
