Description: We will first present a few very practical use cases of GenAI tools that could help the daily life of an actuary. Then we will demonstrate the power of these tools in coding (e.g. Cursor, but also ChatGPT) - improv style. Taking a suggestion from the audience - a publicly available dataset - we will demonstrate how you can ask questions to a large language model, which will write code and provide the insight you are looking for.

Description: This session will review the latest developments in the Affordable Care Act (ACA) marketplace, including a discussion of hot topics, challenges, and opportunities on the horizon. Specific topics will include cost-sharing reductions (CSR) loading and the impact on subsidized rates across states (e.g., mandated loading in NM), the interaction of American Rescue Plan (ARP) subsidy expansion, and the impact once ARP-enhanced subsidies end.

Description: It goes without saying that the analysis of data is a key aspect of actuarial practice, but do traditional actuarial approaches allow us to see the whole picture? Effective data analysis is also key to the identification of health disparities and measuring progress on health equity. Actuaries and others analyzing data for health equity purposes find themselves looking at data differently.

Description: Climate equity will be achieved when the unequal burdens worsened by climate change on disadvantaged populations and the communities in which they live are recognized and addressed. These disadvantaged populations include lower-income groups, children, the disabled, and the elderly, and are they often rural.

Description: In this interactive presentation, you will learn how people make decisions and how this can lead to errors in judgement and irrational choices.

Description: Risk Adjustment in IFRS 17

Description: Broaden your understanding of how long-term care (LTC) is provided and brainstorm with other actuaries on ways to help society fund future LTC solutions. How we fund and provide LTC for our loved ones has changed over time and will evolve still by the time we retire. In this session we will explore the variety of ways that we fund LTC services: out of pocket and with informal care, Medicaid, lifeplan communities (Continuing Care Retirement Communities and and the Continuing Care at Home model), private LTC insurance and more. You will leave the session appreciating that providing long-term care is a key feature of our aging society and understand the variety of ways that we fund LTC today and may in the future.

Description: Walk through real-life examples of how artificial intelligence (AI) can be used to drive insights and aide actuaries in improving the management of their company's inforce book of business. Hear a panel of experts go step-by-step through case studies, showing how practitioners leveraged predictive analytics for solutions to tap further into their data and draw improved insights.Leave the session with knowledge of how to partner advanced machine learning techniques with the actuarial skills and insights to better understand policyholders' behavior to more efficiently enable accelerating revenue and further profit realization.

Description: Kick off with key National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) activities, with a primary focus on updates to principle-based reserve valuations and appointed actuary topics. The presenters will provide insights into the current set of activities and initiatives being considered and/or adopted by the NAIC Life Actuarial Task Force (LATF) and the NAIC Risk Based Capital Working Group as well as Actuarial Standards Board. In addition, other Actuarial Practice Issues and other Appointed Actuary and Opinion topics relevant to Life Insurance, Variable Annuities and Fixed Annuities will be discussed.
