Description: Join this discussion on Valuation topics from both a GAAP and Statutory basis with a spin on how to communicate them to a non-Actuarial and leadership audience. It will include, but certainly not limited to, discussion on IBNR analysis, PAD and its purpose, Wallstreet metrics such as Days in Claims Payable and Medical Claims Payable Growth vs Premium and Membership Growth.

It is also to show the importance of the Valuation reserves on the balance sheet and income statements in regards to a Public company and how WallStreet interprets the numbers.
