Description: This podcast series is an exploration of the paper “Long Term Drivers of Future Mortality” written by Yair Babad and Al Klein. The podcast aims to raise awareness of the paper's valuable insights and make it a useful resource for actuaries, underwriters, insurers, demographers, academics, economists, public health officials, and others involved in estimating future mortality trends and their implications.

Description: The document is a report on U.S. Population Mortality Observations updated with 2022 experience by R. Jerome Holman, FSA, MAAA. It covers mortality trends, analyses by factors like sex, age group, and cause of death, and includes methodological details for the data presented.

Description: This report is presented in the form of a Tableau dashboard and is the sixth public release from this report series and contains the results of an excess mortality analysis for the fourth quarter of 2021. Data from 30 companies representing approximately 69% of the industry’s face amount inforce were included in the analyses in this report. A total of 3.2 million death claims from individual life policies from 2015 through December 31, 2021 make up the basis of the analyses. The report also compares the experience under COVID-19 of the insured population versus the general population.

Description: Different mortality projection methodologies are utilized by actuaries across applications and practice areas. As a result, the MIM Advisory Group developed a single framework to serve as a consistent base for practitioners in projecting mortality improvement.

Description: This report gives an update on the Getzen Model of Long-Run Medical Cost Trends for 2025-2035+, providing insights on key considerations, input parameters, and projections. It includes observations on long-term medical cost trends, budgetary resistance, and regulatory impacts on healthcare expenditures.
