Description: Describes the predictive analytics revolution taking place in the insurance industry

Description: This is a collection of essays from the Society of Actuaries Research Institute, focusing on the potential impact of AI on human longevity and its consequences for modeling future survival/mortality. It includes various essays discussing AI's role in mortality modeling, life expectancy, and implications for actuarial methods.

Description: In this presentation, actuaries and data scientists from Cleveland Clinic and Milliman discuss the development of a sepsis prediction model using machine learning. Presented with a unique challenge of handling massive amounts of data for near real-time risk scoring, the team took their model development to the cloud and delivered a product in less than a week through a unique virtual engagement.

Description: Join us as we delve into the dynamic landscape of the Fixed Indexed Annuity industry. Presenters will discuss trends observed in recent FIA experience, observations from their own company's data, and findings from Milliman's FIA industry experience studies. Key results include a view of surrender behavior relative to market dynamics and comparisons with industry predictive models, serving as a benchmark to explore where industry experience aligns with expectations and where potential surprises have emerged. Through a combination of data-driven analysis and expert interpretation, attendees will gain valuable perspectives on the evolving FIA landscape, enabling them to make informed decisions to navigate future challenges.

Description: Virtual - Session 8D: An Application of Clustering Approaches in Value-Based Care

Description: As health insurance self-funding becomes more popular among smaller group sizes, risk is evolving for the MGUs, stop loss writers, and reinsurers that cover them. Assessing more small groups at lower attachment points means rethinking traditional stop loss underwriting techniques.

Description: Are Accelerated Underwriting (AU) programs performing as expected? As mortality experience will (hopefully) be slow to emerge, it is pivotal that we look at alternative methods of monitoring early performance. From random hold outs, to post-issue APS's, and post-issue prescription profiles, explore popular monitoring techniques and lessons learned so far. Focus on confusion matrices that provide an early indication of mortality slippage relative to fluid-based underwriting decisions. Finally, explore statistical methods to determine what constitutes credibility and identify opportunities to think about mortality slippage more robustly.

Description: Data is everywhere. Health care generates as much as 30% of the world’s data, and new technologies are changing how life insurers analyze consumer information. Actuaries are business-savvy problem solvers. They understand how to leverage the latest technologies and techniques to turn data into actionable insights and solutions for businesses and can communicate those findings to multiple audiences. SOA-credentialed actuaries use predictive analytics to inform organizational and business strategies, with efforts such as identifying chronic conditions in their early stage or determining stress levels through sweat patterns.

Description: Actuarial tools now include both open and closed source software; both need a strong model governance framework to mitigate potential sources of model risk and external threats. This presentation will discuss how to develop, install and monitor a model governance framework to safeguard company modeling assets and intellectual capital.

Description: Data analytics is changing insurance industry and will fundamentally change how we run insurance business. Actuaries could and should be on top of it and lead the change. This practical session would provide a technical overview about GLM and describe how GLM can be applied as a business tool in life insurance. The session would also focus on case-studies across different functional areas like pricing, fraud detection, underwriting and product development.
